Description
Initially brought up in #444, the ability to enable/disable a configurable min-width for tabs when you have many of them, similar to:
If disabled, it would be chrome-like with tabs getting ever smaller, and if enabled, it would be firefox-like with a user-defined min-width before it starts either scrolling or being paginated.

Research direction
Start with the tab sizing and configuration entry points referenced by the request, then review issue #444 for the earlier discussion. Define how the configurable minimum width interacts with many tabs, including the disabled chrome-like behavior and the enabled Firefox-like minimum before scrolling or pagination; done means both modes work as described.
