Since we are talking about the tab bar once again, I'd just like to bring up the topic of tab groups. For Visual Studio 6 you can get the wonderful tab bar extension which supports grouping of header / source in just one tab as seen here:
The idea sounds interesting, but that screenshot doesn't sell it very well ;)
Something configurable along those lines in textmate would be absolute *killer*. For example in an MVC framework like rails you could group controller/view or even model/unit test into an group.
So a group is configured how? And should it be possible to do ad hoc grouping by e.g. dropping one tab on another tab (to make it into a group), and exactly how does a group affect navigation? Should it then be option-cmd-left/right to move to prev/next group, and option-cmd-up/down to move around in the group (and if there are files in the project that belongs to the group, these are added if they are not already there)?
