Seeking terminal emulator with MRU tab switching shortcut

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Kitty has been my daily driver for quite some time now, I really like it for its rich feature set and extensive configuration.
You can use its
goto_tab
action with 0 and negative values to get MRU behaviour. See more here: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/actions/#action-goto_tabOK, this sounds close to what I want, but I left one part unsaid: my muscle memory is such that if I want to visit the 2nd most recent tab, I can hold Ctrl, press Tab twice, then release Ctrl. It doesn't sound like I can accomplish this with Kitty key bindings, or can I?
Just tested* and it doesn't seem to work, no. I don't know if it's doable though, it may be.
Thanks, I'm open to learning alternative workflows, so thanks for adding that info.
Glad to hear! Good luck :)
