Ah yes, sorry, I forgot about the question. And now that I re-read it, I 
must admit I don't really understand it. Could you clarify what exactly 
the alternatives are between which we should decide? Thanks!

Ah and now that I've read "vertical tabs" again, I think we should inlcude
"Do not use rotated horizontal tabs. Tabs are stacked either 
horizontally or vertically, but the label is always written horizontally".
I'm not aware of any KDE application which currently still use rotated 
tabs, but since Amarok had them at one point and we don't want to see 
them again, I guess it makes sense to explicitly discourage using them.
