Describe the request

When the Cmd+W (Ctrl+W on Windows) keyboard shortcut is pressed, close the current tab.

Describe the current behavior

Arduino acts as a container for tabs. Most people see this most often in browsers or other editors / IDEs. The keyboard for closing a tab in those cases is Cmd+W (Ctrl+W on Windows). In Arduino IDE this closes the entire window.

To reproduce

  1. Press Cmd+W

Arduino IDE version

2.0.0-beta.4

Operating system

macOS

Additional context

This could be a feature request or a bug, or a highly opinionated preference. I'm not sure which.
