I may be the only one left, but I still like tabs! =] Every IDE
I've used has used the tab paradigm.  I don't have any scaling
problems with it.  That being said, I think I could get used to
the Qt Creator dropdown paradigm.  The difference is their combo
does not span the entire width of the editor area as the combo did
in KDevelop before.  I did not like that.
