  [  ] tab overflow (code a handler)

  The idea is to have a tab overflow handler for the release.

  After sorting lots of details, the code I was making works, but
adds  lots  of  complexity for little gain, so I decided to try a
different  approach  (adding  all  this  stuff  just  before  the
release is too dangerous).

  Fortunately  the second prototype works much better and is way
simpler.

  I'll  try  to  have it in the repo soon. If by some reason this
doesn't  happen  by  Aug  24,  the  release  will  roll without a
polished tab overflow handler.

  Please treat current repo as release candidate 1.
