Two solutions that would be helpful are 1) Allowing for multiple tab rows upon overflow (e.g. winXP system control panel) and 2) navigation arrows that scroll thru all the tabs including those off screen to the side (e.g. how MS Excel handles an overflow of worksheets in an excel workbook). It would be nice if both options were available. Personally I think 2) is more appropriate in this case since web pages don't generally have a constantly updated status of which a tab would need to notify you. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a bunch of tabs 2. Try to read the titles to tell which was where Actual Results: Can't tell which was were without going through them all. Expected Results: Should have been readable no matter how many tabs are open
