In a tab group with multiple views, if you click the 'x' (close button) of two views quickly enough and without moving the mouse, you maximize the tab group because the two mouse clicks are interpreted as a double-click. An easy way to reproduce is to start the RCP browser example, open the history view, type Ctrl-T a couple times to open many browser views until you see the chevron button and then try and close two browser views quickly. This confused me quite a bit when it first happened.
Filtering out double-clicks over the close button would require API to determine the location of the close button.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
