Just noticed this, thanks for telling about it.
Yes, :tabclose/:bdelete works just like :tabcloseall from my plugin.

I would add filter to :reload, and to :tabonly to leave only filtered pages.

I'm in process of changing job, so I don't have much free time now,
but this feature is really important for me, so I will try to implement it soon.

N.B. Just thought about it: commands implemented in tabcloseext plugin
use "!" notation to designate regexp usage for filters, but :bdelete, :tabonly
& :reload already use it, and it wouldn't be very nice to change their behavior.
I would either implement filtering with regular expressions only or check if
filter string is inclosed in e.g. "/" symbols, so
:tabclose google.com
filters tabs by simple string comparison via .indexOf method, and
:tabclose /google\.com.*q=query/
interprets its argument as regexp and filters tabs with this regular expression.
