 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 &quot;put the link to a 'read later' 
 list&quot; /
 &quot;place it with other easy to access documentation&quot; rather than a very 
 low
 level operation like &quot;open a new tab&quot; to fullfill all possible
 needs regarding opening a windows )
