Last tab visibility

Sorry to bring this to the forum, but since the bug report was closed it doesn't seem to allow further comments... :(

Regarding this bug, I agree that you can use the drop down list to focus the last tab, but the issue I see is that when selecting the last tab, it doesn't always make it completely visible. For example, let's say I have room to display 10 tabs, but I have 20 files open. When I select the 20th tab, I don't see the complete tab. Generally I see the tab title, but the close button and the right side of the tab are not visible. The problem gets worse if I have even more files (for example 30 tabs) open, in that I don't even see the complete tab title.

I've attached a screenshot that perhaps explains things a little better.

Cheers!

Like I replied on the bug report:
- The title is also available on the frame caption
- To close the tab (when the x button is not visible) you can:
1) Ctrl-W
2) use the mouse middle click

When I designed the tab control, I wanted to maximize the space utilization of the screen - this is why partial tabs are allowed to be displayed.
