Sooo? Should we use another component for tabs?

Bug description:
  There seems to be no easy way to add a Tab to Tabs programmatically.

  I would be nice to be able add, remove and edit Tabs dynamically. So
  far I haven't found a way to do this.

  I have made an Android style ViewPager based on ListView. It is quite
  easy to update the pages with ListModel methods.

  
  ------------ UX Comment -----------

  Tabs component is not deprecated from UITK point of view. Design uses slightly different naming than UITK for components they design, we call "Tabs" now "Header Sections". This is a bar which sits below the main header. 
  An other option to add "tabs" to your UI, allowing user to navigate through different sections of the app, is a navigation drawer on the left hand side of the header.
