The feature should work like on Firefox:

  • All closed tabs should be remembered in a queue
  • A right click on the green zone should open a contextual menu "Reopen Closed Tab"
  • Keyboard shortcut CTRL+shift+T should work

Research direction
Implement a queue to store closed tabs, add a context menu option to reopen the last closed tab, and bind the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+T. Study how Firefox implements this for reference.
