For the time being, I use "Close Pane" shortcut (<Ctrl-Shift-w>).

This is actually more correctly /dup #10109. WinUI is providing that tooltip for us, and we need to override it somehow.

Here said "Close Pane". Are "Pane" and "Tab" the same?

Nope. A "tab" can host many "panes". Fortunately though, if you try to close the only pane in a tab, it'll also close the tab, so closePane is a more general-purpose action than closeTab. For more reading, see the docs:

Ah I see. However, when I search the "Command Palette", there is no Close Pane. Is it unset by default?

That's correct. "Close Tab" isn't bound by default because "Close Pane" does the job for most people.
