This is exactly how this is already implemented on the tab-bar.

The tab-line is used just for buffer selection, so either it can use
the order of buffer-list, or the order of window-prev-buffers, or
alphabetical order. I see no other way to sort buffers.
You mentioned 'creation time' above. Does a buffer have a buffer-local
variable for its creation time? Then we could sort by buffer's
creation time. But currently I see only the variable buffer-display-time,
not buffer-creation-time.

Many features of the tab mix plus are already supported on the tab-bar.
