Doesn't work properly, hangs a lot of times.

Can't get this to work with Brave.

Gesture detection is really very basic, and only accounts for where the mouse pointer is when the right mouse button is released vs where it was when it was pressed, not for actual movement in between. (i.e. if you do any crazy movement and end up 100 px right and 100 px down from where you started, it will register as a Close current tab gesture) Otherwise works fine.
