How do I make firefox focus on the left tab by default after closing a tab?

In all Firefox versions before 3, when closing a tab, focus automatically goes to the tab to the left of the viewed tab. This was consistent with the way Firefox opened tabs, which was to the right.

For example: I have 3 tabs, ABC. I'm currently viewing tab B, and open a new tab using a link. Now I have tabs ABDC, with focus on D. Once I'm finished looking at D, I close tab D and should be viewing B again. Current settings eject me to tab C, which is unrelated.

Is there a way to revert this behavior?
