Weird behavior when trying to close the last tab in Intruder and Repeater

Good afternoon, Burp Suite Community Edition v2023.5.4 [p4629zecilnjzve8msrj:19nf] When a user tries to close the last tab in the "Intruder" or "Repeater" by pressing the "x" on the tab, instead of the tab closing, the tab does not close and the "tab identifier" increases. To reproduce, 1. Open Burp Suite Community Edition v2023.5.4 [p4629zecilnjzve8msrj:19nf] 2. Open a temporary project (using Burp Defaults) 3. Click "Intruder" or "Repeater". 4. Ensure that there is only one tab. 5. Click the "x" button beside the tab. 6. Observe that the tab does not close and the "tab identifier" increases.

Hi This is expected behavior. When closing the last tab in Repeater/ Intruder, Burp automatically opens a new default one. Therefore this explains why the tab number is increasing.
