Why do you think this is a problem with tabbar?  It has nothing to do
with tabbar that, if a buffer is displayed in multiple windows, then
killing the buffer will remove its display from all those windows.

What do you mean by strange behavior?  I use tabbar and don't see any
behavior I consider strange.

The default binding of C-<mouse-1> is mouse-buffer-menu, which pops up
an unsorted and ungrouped buffer list.  What you describe sounds like
msb-mode (which overrides C-<mouse-1>).
