Then, it start to become more like a 2nd windows manager, and we go
back to
the MDI metaphor of win95.
Another view would be that too much tabs is usually a sign that most of
them
are not needed now, and should not be shown. But this requires a more
high level
interface ( ie, sometimes that say "put the link to a 'read later'
list" /
"place it with other easy to access documentation" rather than a very
low
level operation like "open a new tab" to fullfill all possible
needs regarding opening a windows )
