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

[Jordan S.]

Whoah with 20495 I did the following:
Opened up tabs with both short and a couple long names so that the bar was
filled. As I added more tabs, both the longer names AND the shorter names
were truncating - albeit the shorter names seemed to truncate less than the
longer names. Then when I finally had enough open to force overflow I got
what you see in the attached picture :S
