ATM the tab position is deliberately on the side opposite to the vertical
scrollbar.
You can change e2_output.c:
at line 2599 GTK_POS_LEFT >> GTK_POS_RIGHT
at line 2601 GTK_POS_RIGHT >> GTK_POS_LEFT

You can revert to (more-or-less) the former behaviour by starting a fresh
history each session - clear the config setting "persistent opened-directories
history" on the panes page of config dialog. You can remove the history.<menu>
item from the context menu, if you have no need to see them all at once. The
order of histories reflects (or is supposed to do so) where you've been. If you
'branch' from somewhere in the history, the trailing part of the list gets
reversed, so that 'go-back' works as we would expect.

Reliability of that process has always been a problem, hard to deal with
because it's not reliably repeatable. I'll look into it again.
