Closing the current tab

I spend a lot of time opening a link in a new tab, and then once I have finished looking at it I need to move my mouse pointer over to the tab to close it so that I can go back to my main page.

I would like a simple addition to the Firefox code that would allow me to close the current tab with a double click anywhere on the current tab. This should be a simple thing to implement in a Firefox release.

Thanks
