I want to be able to open a new tab in the current terminal window, but have that new tab come up right next to the current one (on the right of it) rather than at the very right of the tabs.
Is this possible?

It's not possible with current gnome-terminal. If you're not afraid of recompiling it from source, well, there's a patch available at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709109.
./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib/gnome-terminal --enable-distro-packaging && make && sudo make install
. Assuming Vivid, you might also want to apply the transparency patch from Ubuntu package.
