           Summary: Usage becomes cumbersome with a lot of tabs
           Product: rekonq
           Version: 0.6
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: adjam7@gmail.com
        ReportedBy: sitter.harald@gmail.com


Version:           0.6 (using KDE 4.5.1) 
OS:                Linux

When having a lot of tabs (say, twice the amount that would fit on a screen) it
is close to impossible to use rekonq because the navigational arrows are way
too tiny. Also the arrow concept in itself makes it incredibly difficult to
find the right tab if you have a lot of tabs with similar favicion and similar
title (which already makes the whole thing very difficult).

This is especially annoying if one has gmail on the first tab and currently is
on the last one because you will have to "slide" to the front to even get in
clickig range.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Open Qt class documentations for multiple classes and maybe add some other
pages too (for realism maybe gmail and cnn and kde.org), so that the arrow
navigation paradigm kicks in. Then try to find one specific tab.

Actual Results:  
It is almost impossible to find a specific tab, especially if it is one of
those class documentations. Now while this would be difficult either way the
arrow navigation only makes it more difficult.

Expected Results:  
Tabs should be easier to find

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35-22-generic
