Tabs in 10.60a

How do I get the tabs to behave as they have been in previous versions of Opera? If I have 4 tabs open in 10.10 and minimize the first tab on the left, it'll go to the second, then third, then fourth. In 10.60a it goes from 1 to 4 to 2 to 3. This doesn't make any sense and really breaks the functionality for me. I've tried fixing it in preferences with no luck.

It changed with the new MDI in 10.50 and won't change back for a while yet I suspect. Search for previous threads on the MDI.

I guess I'll stick to 10.10 until it's fixed. Why bother having tabs if their functionality is inconsistent and broken?

Changing tab activation doesn't fix the inconsistency in tab order when minimising, which is due to the way tabs are opened in the background in 10.5/6.

In 10.10 they open behind every other tab, at the back of the stack, while in 10.5/6 they're all opened behind the top tab. This is only obvious if you use MDI, without all tabs maximised, but the counter-intuitive and inconsistent tab ordering when you minimise tabs is a nasty side effect.
