Tabs across top: list by use

[Dwight]

I would like to see the tabs across the top by those most frequently used
rather than the order they come up currently. That seems like a simple option
to create.

Dwight,

Can you explain why you would feel that that would be useful? What
would you be able to do that you can't currently?

What would happen if you had 20 or 30 sections in a folder? (I have
serveral of those) Where would you look for "Sales", for example? You
wouldn't know where it would be, since almost certainly you wouldn't
know where it was in the pecking order of frequency of use.

Your suggestion may be useful, but currently I can see the problems
more clearly than the potential benefits.

I'm with you, Andrew. I note that Microsoft implemented a similar "view most
used" approach in the menu items of their Office products (you have to hover
for a while to see the full menu) - a "feature" I find confusing and prefer
to disable.
