This is just a better error message.

After 'M-x C-x t 2', 'minibuffer-selected-window' returns non-nil that
is used in 'tab-bar-new-tab-to' before calling 'delete-other-windows':

      ;; Handle the case when it's called in the active minibuffer.
      (when (minibuffer-selected-window)
        (select-window (minibuffer-selected-window)))

The problem is that after 'M-x C-x t 2 C-x o C-x t 2',
'minibuffer-selected-window' returns nil while
the current buffer is the minibuffer.

This is because after the first 'C-x t 2', a new window is created by:

            ;; Create a new window to get rid of old window parameters
            ;; (e.g. prev/next buffers) of old window.
            (split-window) (delete-window)

so 'minibuffer-selected-window' refers to the deleted window,
therefore nil.

Would it be possible to update 'minibuf_selected_window'
with a new window after deleting the original window?
