Allow tabs to wrap to multi-line
Problem
I almost always have more tabs open than fit in the horizontal space provided. I have seen the thread on shrinking tabs to try to fit them in one line #15048, and I've also seen this closed feature request for what I'm asking for - #32836. That issue was closed saying there would be no changes for 6-12 months, and it has been around 15 months now so wanted to reopen discussion. JetBrains IDEs added this a few years ago - simple config option to wrap open tabs to multiple lines rather than extending indefinitely horizontally, forcing a horizontal scroll or use of the Open Editors section in the left bar. While the Open Editors block is a nice idea, I've spent so many years switching via tabs (and continue to do so in all my other editors) that I'm requesting a better solution.
