How to Jump to 1st Unread Tab?

Sick of scrolling through a lot of tabs in order to reach the 1st unread tab located on the far-right? Is there any way to "jump" directly to the 1st tab you just opened from current tab? Well, this is possible since Kestrel B2 introduced a new close tab behavior... But, you will have to closed current tab in order to "jump" to the 1st tab you opened! So, what if you want to jump to the 1st tab, yet keep current tab opened?!! Here is a way to do just that...
1. First, go to Preferences (Ctrl+F12) > Advanced > Tabs > When closing a tab option & choose Activate first tab opened from current tab. (ONLY available in Kestrel B2 & beyond)
2. Now, go to Preferences (Ctrl+F12) > Advanced > Shortcuts > Keyboard/Mouse Setup.
(& create a new keyboard/mouse setup, if you didn't do that already)
3. Next, double-click on a Keyboard/Mouse setup you want to use, select Application section.
4. Finally, create (or modified) a MG/Hotkey with the following actions: Close page & Delay, 1 & Reopen page & Minimize page. Hit Enter once & OK twice.
Now you can opened a lot of tabs & then jump to the 1st unread tab immediately! Isn't this function extreamly useful? Do you want Opera to have this function by default?

Say, I have 50 tabs open, I am on tab-13, and before that i was on tab-25. The idea is to switch back and forth between tab-13 and tab-25 if need be.

This trick is only a work around used to jump from current tab to the 1st tab directly, AFAIK you will need to use the Tab bar or Windows panel to jump between 2 tabs directly.
