Such a ctrl-tab behavior would be awesome!
And yes, I thought about renaming all tabs, and keeping only the icon but
before I was using the first letters of the directory to know where I was
without needing the entire name. 
The option you propose would really be great (and probably useful not only for
me ^^)
