Keyboard close is library-owned (APG). Delete on a focused closable tab requests its close; the slot wires no keys.
Focus is restored on close. After the consumer removes the tab, focus moves to the new active tab, then the add button, then the group element - it never falls to <body>.
Keep the template decorative. Icon only; no nested interactive elements, no SR-only text (the button already announces). Decorative glyphs should be aria-hidden.
