I posted on the Chromium blog a while back about the Many Tab Overflow
issue:

http://blog.chromium.org/2009/01/tabbed-browsing-in-google-chrome.html#c2234841374545598907

and I've finally got round to doing a quick mockup of my ideas.

Note: hub tabs are tabs from which other "spoke" tabs have been opened
using the
"open link in new tab" context menu or by ctrl clicking on links.
(refer the Ordering
section in the main blog post linked to above for a description of how
hub tabs
currently work in chrome.)

Obviously with only 8 tabs it doesn't show much of a space saving, but
with more tabs
open it would allow much more space for the tabs in the current group
of tabs than
having all tabs the same size.

Do you think this would work? Would it be understood without having to
be explained? Is there a better way of separating the groups of tabs?

I've also posted this to Issue 188:
