In order to release the browser when something is erroneously holding a reference to a removed tab, we should cut off the link between the two.

Why null out linkedPanel? It's just an ID.
It's hard to know whether anyone would be depending on tabs keeping their browsers alive, but I guess there isn't much to do aside from trying it and seeing what breaks.
