+1.

Using the wasted title bar space on Windows by moving the tabs there, does
make sense. However, on Haiku that space isn't wasted, because it allows
stacking windows -- windows with tab views. As I wrote before, I find that
that an awesome feature to neatly organize multiple browser windows on a
single workspace. Losing that functionality would be... uh... a loss.

Agreed. I may be in a minority, but personally I'd rather have S&T be
a feature that's strictly for the user's organizational purposes, and
not co-opted by apps (or at least not without it being an explicit
option).

Rene
