As just (tried to) explain here and there, I don't see how we can 
implement an option for this. Debating on the problem with Benjamin it 
has been pointed out that this change will not help anyway implementing 
a "multi process browser", in the state (Qt)WebKit is now.

Going down (one of) the main reasons for the change, I propose to leave 
things as they are now (a la 0.6, tabs under the toolbar).
If someone is against this and wanna have TABS UP, please "speak" (in 
the sense of write) now :D

The other main reason for doing the change was that it will fix for free 
two main rekonq code structural bugs (panels & urlbar) that lead 
sometimes to some unwanted behavior and/or to some hacking to let things 
work. Fortunately, the forced refactoring in the TABS UP branch give me 
some ideas on the way to fix those ;)
