Hi! Dear Developers,
Have you ever use Firefox? It have a scrollable tabs bar. In Chrome before version 37, there was a flag named stacked-tab-strip in desktop version. But now it only works in mobile version.
I hope Microsoft Edge Team can add this function. I need it very much. If I open 30 tabs in Edge, I can not get any useful information from tab bar which is blank or just show the icon in a little space with same width.
I am not an English native speak. So I give some website to let you know what I mean:

Thank you.
Best wishes!

It is a nice feature, when I tried Vivaldi it had this feature too and it's also a Chromium based browser.

@Dealtz_Symsisx Yup. Edge could have min tab width parameter in setting after which tab scrolling could start.

Thank you all for the feedback! We've heard about this from others too, so I looped back with the product team. It sounds like while there are some complicating factors, they are investigating different options for improving the tab management experience.
