As for the tabs being left-aligned... no, I don't like it. I much prefer Camino's current methods over Safari's. Centre-alignment sets the tabs nicely apart from other screen clutter, er.. I mean features. :)

The point I was trying to make is not about setting one element apart from another but this was rather a practical aspect...


Imagine the following steps:

- Open a browser window with a bookmarked tab set (say some news sites you check several times a day (like I do)
- In Safari, position the mouse cursor over the close button of the first (and active) tab
- When you are done with the first page, close the tab, leave the mouse cursor where it is...


Observation: The close button of the next tab is now exactly under your pointer, ready to be clicked - that was my whole pro left-alignment argument (in combination with having that close button on the left and avoiding the whole tab-resizing)

I thought the current way of handling this just demands too much user attention - as I said, this is more than just the visual aspect for me.
