I don't think there is even a feature to go to the previously open ("last") tab.

Ctrl+Tab advances from one tab to another and Ctrl+Shift+Tab does the same in reverse. If you have less than ten tabs, Ctrl+Tab can be pretty quick although not direct.

From the keyboard, you can get there in two steps by using Alt-W (which opens the Windows dropdown from the main menu) and then hitting the appropriate key, 1 through 9 and then A through Z. That allows two keystrokes to get to any of 35 tabs. You do have to spend a second to locate your desired file.

I think this is a good idea, though, and I think you should make a feature request.
