[konsole] [Bug 403059] New: shrinking size of tabs

[Tomaz Canabrava]

Hm, I don't think so. But we can try to solve that in another way.
first, if the tabs where small the name on it didn't really matter, so
you can rename your tabs to something that fits. Having only the icon
to identify a tab is not userful and you where switching via mental
model: you remember what's on each tab, so you can switch.

I'll implement a ctrl tab behavior to show all tabs as a list just as
it happens on kate and plasma when you do alt + tab, so switching
multiple tabs are easier.
