    Title: Additional chat windows disappear / re-appearing - duplicating
    Reproduction Rate: 100%
    Blocker? no
    Details: Hitting ESC causes additional(detached) chat windows to close. Opening additional ones causes duplicates. The + to add a tab is also not functional when this happens.
    Steps to Reproduce: Hit ESC - then create a new tab, then drag the new tab to spawn an additional window - which then causes the old ones to reappear also..

    Hi @Echondas thanks for your feedback. When you "close" a tab it really just hides it from view. When you create a new tab it looks at the name of the previous tab in that particular group and names it accordingly, which is why you are seeing multiple "Tab 2". To truly close a tab you must click on the cog and hit "Remove Tab".

    Just discussed this with @wizardsmoke and we'll be working towards making this less confusing as we get more feedback.

    @Undone @wizardsmoke Hey there - I get it now - thanks! I'm also seeing that re-combining tabs is awkward - you have to click and drag the window section that says "tab" for it to work - not anywhere else in the window.
    Also - disconnected (separate window) tabs become unable to be removed using the cog. (the cog is dimmed slightly) - if you spawn an additional tab in the disconnected window using the +
    (they can be removed by re-combining them all)

    (see video)

    @Echondas We saw that disabled cog bug a day or two ago, but we did not know how to reproduce it. Thanks for the repro steps! :)
