Eclipse keeps replacing opened tabs

My eclipse instance has this retarded tendency of not keeping tabs that are in use. In particular, when I open a class found in a search, my active tab gets replaced by it.

I've Googled around and tried a number of solutions including this. Unfortunately, since there "tabs" also refers to the tab key/character and there are also lots of issues with the tab character, that means there are lots of irrelevant search results when I tried to research on Google.

So here I am, presenting this problem here. I wonder if you guys have encountered and overcome such an annoying feature.

For Search reusing the tabs is controlled by the Reuse editors to show matches check box in Preferences > General > Search

There are also similar options in the Run/Debug and Team preferences.
