Bug description:
Related to bug #1198714 and design http://design.canonical.com/2014/05
/the-browser-is-dead-long-live-the-browser/.
I've a feeling that tabs in a phone factor browser are a bit
shoehorned in, I'd actually be much happier having separate items in
the right-edge spread for the open websites instead of introducing a
second "axis" on which to switch between tabs.
I remember it was a desire to "explode" tabbed UIs in the Super+S
spread in Unity, but it was not possible technically. Maybe it could
be made possible today?
Whether tabs would exist grouped in the same right-edge stack, or as
completely independent entities, remains to be investigated. Maybe
we'd explode the tabs on touch or pinch or something. I just can't see
the purpose of tabs if they're not readily available, which on a phone
form factor would be a waste of precious screen estate.
