I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this (I apologise if it isn't),
but I have a suggestion for the tab UI. Power users like to have many tabs open,
but with the tab bar can quickly become crowded with the standard horizontal
layout of tabs. I would like to suggest an idea which has already been
implemented in Web browsers like Galeon and Opera: vertical tabs. Here, tabs
would travel down the side of a window instead of across the top. The
orientation of the text on the tabs would not be changed: it would still run
from left to right. To facilitate this feature, there should also be some way to
restrict tab widths to a fixed size, either in pixels or in characters.
Here's an ASCII diagram:
--------------------------
----------|
| Tab 1 |
----------|
| Tab 2 | Web page
----------|
| Tab 3 |
----------|
| Tab 4 |
----------|
| Tab 5 |
----------|
