Instead of lambda anonymous function it would be more useful to
provide named function to close the tab. This way keybinding can be
customized easily. There exists function to open the tab, while
anonymous one is handling closing of the tab.

<tab-bar> <C-current-tab> runs the command (lambda nil (interactive)
(tab-bar-close-tab 6)) (found in global-map), which is an interactive
Lisp function.

(anonymous)

Not documented.

These are dynamically created actions to close specific tabs.  The only
potentially confusing thing here is that `C-h k' gives you an output at
all, but I guess there's not much we can do about that.

If you want to close the current tab, use `C-x t 0', for instance, or
rebind `tab-close' to any key you want.

So I don't think there's anything to fix here, and I'm closing this bug
report.

Oh, you are right. I was inspecting how to close the bug and found
that function. My expectation was that I will find to which key is tab
closing bound.

Thank you.
