When we could use normal Tabs instead Layers ?

Because Layers aka usualWINwindows-in-one-shell takes a lot of memory and CPU usage..., especially when 30-50 opened ... ,and can't be draged, dropped or managed sad smiley.
Will it be in K-Meleon1.1 or later ?

Dorian has already made several tab exe, you can check the K-MeleonCCF version which is kind of preview of the future tab versions. Thanks to Dorian for his work.

Already tested it. Works fine !
But a litle bugs there - limit of 30 opened tabs and crashes over 30 tabs on last 5beta&RC1 CCF sad smiley.

Suggestions on it :

According to min tab width(whel tabs limit in line on) - make scroll bar , scroll buttons , extender buttons(right&left), or multyline for tab bar ! And possibility to scroll via mouse weel!
And(may be optional) secondly selected tab - unselect it and select last selected and e.t.c. with history!

There 's the limitation of 30 tabs right now. But I havn't got crashes because of 30 tabs at this moment yet. We're probably going to have multiline tab bars in the future or some other ways. The new tab version is under the development right now.

Crash is in takes 100% cpu usage and GUI hangs..., until kill the process...

Scroll bar in tab bar much more productive than multyline imho smiling smiley .

I'm testing RC2 on XP with 30 tabs open, no sign of 100% CPU usage here...

100% cpu usage still exist on 29-th tab sad smiley (on 550p3 machine 512ram XPsp2)...
ps
that problem was solved in K-MeleonCCF ME 0.07 Final.


And could you remove 30tab limit, please ?
