This meant you didnt need to switch to the app and was very useful. Is it meant to be gone?

so it is!

Can it be configured? refresh is more use than opening a new tab?!

Currently not possible. Maybe this could be added to the browser app settings in the general settings -> apps.

A really weird change indeed - it doesn't look like it went through QA testing. At least for me, the refresh option was much more used than the other one.

Actually I was using both cover actions frequently. Even from within the app, opening a new tab used to be faster using cover action than from within the browser itself. This has improved with the new layout of navigation bar a few updates ago. Aside from me thinking swipable cover actions were better than clickable (I don't have the 1.1.9 release installed, though, so I can only guess) I would prefer to still have two cover actions available. And if only one remains, at least make it configurable which one is used.
