The purpose of the App Tab is to be 'permanent' and should close only if user intentionally does so. Hence, when a user on an App Tab, and enters a URL, or opens a Bookmarks/History item, it should open in a New Tab instead of overwriting the contents of the App Tab i.e. the App Tab should be 'protected' from overwrites.
