I would __really__ like this behavior. It would be far more useful to  
me than the current TM implementation. Just make it work like Safari,  
with the same tab behavior, history tracking, etc. Safari is easily the  
most efficient tab implementation I use on my Mac. Like other posters,  
the current TM implementation is pretty much worthless because of the  
current  
new-tab-for-every-single-file-in-my-project-and-there-are-hundreds-and- 
I-end-up-using-the-project-drawer-because-the-tab-I-want-is-never- 
visible--even-if-I-just-used-it-two-seconds-ago approach. ;-)

Best, Eric

BTW, I use TM for Ruby/Rails development.
