I can agree that they can clutter the interface -
I do use a few of them myself - the one primary use I have for them is
for acces to remote volumes - I have 2 tabs which (combined contain about
40 items) have aliases to various remote volumes I have (or will need) to
visit. This makes moving files to these locations very easy, as I can
drag n drop the file(s) on the volume alias, enter the password and
forget about it.
As a note, though - the OS does not populate a selection of tabbed
folders FOR ME, unlike the toolbar. I use them as a matter of user
choice, unlike the dock which is forced upon me.
effectively this is an 'opt in' technology rather than an 'opt out', or
'no out' technology.
