A similar thing that surprises me is how malicious ad networks are still able to effectively get your Chrome tabs into states where you can't easily close them without killing the entire chrome task.
While I'm sure there is a lot of complexity there that I'm not considering to avoid messing with legitimate usages of tab closing event handling by real apps, it would be nice if there were some kind of like alternate tab close input (eg. hold ALT or SHIFT, or both while clicking the tab 'X') where the user is signalling the intent that "yes, I absolutely want to close this tab, no matter what, kill it with extreme prejudice".
If such a thing exists, which it might, someone please correct me by telling me what it is.
