[Adium-devl] Should tabs size-to-fit?

I think the size to fit is a good thing, but you're absolutely right about
it being annoying when there are enough tabs open to go to overflow. Perhaps
when it's about to go to overflow it could re-evaluate open tabs and make
them fixed width (kind of like they were pre 1.1 wherein they would all
shrink, except here, only the large ones would shrink) until they reach a
min-width 'average' size, at which point it would then start using the
overflow menu.
