I don't know if that is a feature or not but your email got me thinking.

It would be a good idea if C-tab beeps at the last tab and a subsequent
C-tab moves to the first tab. When there are lots of tabs open, this
will give an indication that the user has reached the last tab.

And of course this is Emacs. This behaviour should be configurable.
