"Navigate Sequential Tabs" unintuitive as it does not follow any visible tab sorting #556

Description

@embeddedtofu

What I expect from this function is the same behavior as space/backspace in the info document reader on Linux.

Whether it's a tree or a flat list, a swipe from the right to the left goes one tab up and a swipe to the right goes down based on the sorting that has been set.

For instance, if you have trees on and the subgroups are the prefix numbers, you would go from tab 2.0 to tab 1.2.4 if that's the tab right above the other with whatever sorting you have set.

Because I don't know what logic is followed right now--maybe creation time--but it jumps all over the place.

If it would take a while to implement the above behavior, I'd appreciate it if we could get the default Firefox way (Up and down in a default sorted tab list) until then.

Edit: The filter should naturally be respected as well. When only private tabs are shown, you would only move between those, which is currently not the case.

Finally, you may consider moving the setting in question to gestures. It makes more sense imho.
