Comment:

 This is equivalent to clicking on any selected tab's link, though I
 understand why it may seem slightly more superfluous when there's only one
 tab to click on (i.e. no menus are present).

 The + link itself isn't causing any major problems—the only data lost is
 the menu name, and you're directed back to the same page. The + tab should
 not create the menu, as that would be unexpected behavior (and outside of
 the mental model for a tabbed interface).

 That said, we may want to remove links from inside selected tabs (to
 prevent data loss) or only when the + tab is selected. Marking as ux-
 feedback.
