Sorry to say it, but the tabs in SeaMonkey 2.2 browser just aren't up to
snuff...

The active tab needs to be highlighted with a different color, so it's easy
to see. Firefox accomplishes this by making the active tab lighter, which
works fine. If there's any difference in SeaMonkey, I can't see it with my
CRT monitor. I realize that LCD monitors render grayscales better, but
SeaMonkey should take that into consideration. I've looked through the
settings and can't find any way to fix this, so presume it's built-in(?).

Apparently the only way to close a tab in SeaMonkey with the mouse is to
click the little x at the rightside of the tab bar, but it's too small to
hit easily&  quickly with the mouse pointer. Also that's much less
satisfactory than having an x on each tab. Without an x on each tab, it's
necessary to first select a tab then click the x. Very cumbersome. Or am I
overlooking something obvious as a newbie? Yes, I'm aware of the keyboard
shortcuts affecting tabs, but I normally use a mouse for these operations.


I also find that's it's become nearly impossible to identify the active tab in SM 2.1. This is a pretty big problem to me -- I hope a solution will be forthcoming!

OTOH, please keep the single x for closing tabs! It's one of the best features of SM, relative to IE and a few other browsers I occasionally use. If a user is having trouble locating a single x, imagine their trouble locating multiple x's on each tab!
