  That is of course true. The main point is still there, though - the tabs 
change size between active and not active. That is really not good, since it 
requires muscle memory to change between contexts, and that simply does not 
happen :) So... that at least needs fixing (but that, i understand, may be a 
bit difficult to do outside of kdelibs)
