Cool. I'll wait another day for complaints and then
commit this name change and the infront.patch.

The main idea behind moving the "close tab" menu item is that i for
one expected it to be next to "quit" in the menu, and currenlty its
quiet amazingly far from there, therefore I at first assumed that 
there was no shortcut for closing the tab.

another thing, a "close tab" item should be adding to the context
menu, that would presumably also show the keyboard shortcut therefore
removing the need for the above menu move (although i'd still like it)
