Yes, with the change in 3.2, tabs now refresh, but why even go there?
well, probably the browser logic doesn't apply completely to UR. Tabs now refresh, so there is no risk now ... and I'd say no need for an empty tab ;-)

It's probably coming from the concept, any tab has to point somewhere in the database, when you create new UR file, it has to have one item, the root, it cannot be just empty. It would probably cause problems, if tabs could be void and point nowhere, don't know, just guessing. As it is now, it opens the new tab (and points to the same item by default), you can do what you want, it's just some psychological thing ;-) that you need empty tab as you are used from browsers
