+</I>&gt;<i> Another view would be that too much tabs is usually a sign that most of
+</I>&gt;<i> them
+</I>&gt;<i> are not needed now, and should not be shown. But this requires a more
+</I>&gt;<i> high level
+</I>&gt;<i> interface ( ie, sometimes that say &quot;put the link to a 'read later'
+</I>&gt;<i> list&quot; /
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;place it with other easy to access documentation&quot; rather than a very
+</I>&gt;<i> low
+</I>&gt;<i> level operation like &quot;open a new tab&quot; to fullfill all possible
+</I>&gt;<i> needs regarding opening a windows )
+</I>
+sometimes i just have alot of different tabs, perhaps it would be easier to
+have tabs on the right side (most of us have widescreen monitors anyway).
+
+(and sometimes they are all related to the same topic)
+
+otoh, if every tab would be different window, any window manager i've seen
+wouldn't do it properly either.
+
+perhaps window managers need to find a new way of handling such things,...
+something original.
