Is it feasible to have multiple lines for tabs, something like  "Tab Mix
Plus" does on Firefox?
As an (somehow exaggerated) example:
http://thasulinux.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/tab_mix_plus.png

When there are too many tabs open,  the tab label can become too  tiny to be
useful, in this cases having multiple lines looks more suitable to me (but,
again, it's a personal opinion).
Something like keep putting tabs in one line, and if the tabs become too
narrow, add a second line, then keep going on (plus displaying a warning
popup when some limit is reached)

Best regards,
Fábio Pasini
