BufEnter buggy?

I have an autocmd that updates the window title in my terminal based on the current file name. BufEnter clearly seems to be the event I would want to trigger it with. But I've noticed two problems:

(a) BufEnter isn't getting triggered after closing the last window in a tab and ending up in a different tab. It *should* be getting triggered, right? I mean, it gets triggered when I close a window and end up in a different window in the same tab, so why wouldn't it get triggered when I close a tab?

(b) When switching directories in netrw (which switches buffers), BufEnter gets triggered before the directory location is known, so expand('%') will be empty. But once I'm in the directory, I get the directory location just fine by calling expand('%'), so I'm not sure how netrw is changing the buffer location *after* the BufEnter event. It seems like there's some questionable logic going on there, but I'm not sure who's to blame.
