Obsolete:Future:NewTabs

This is a scratch pad for the new Tab prefs to come

First lets see what features other browsers have

Current Camino prefs

• Tab bar:
  • Always show tab bar

  • opens in a new tab
• new windows and tabs
  • open in the background
• link from other applications
  • open in a new window
  • open in a new tab in the frontmost window
  • reuses the front most window

I think it is a very good idea to list our key combinations in this panel, tabbed browsing is a feature we should make as easy as possible. So providing the key combos directly where they can enable it is the best of all places to show them.
