Does it do that always though, or only in full-screen? The 4 betas do it in full screen on Windows, never explored in OSX. I essentially never browse full-screen, there are too many 960px fixed-width websites out there, so it's just wasting 500px where I can have other things open.

On Windows, Minefield nightly does it in normal mode. In full-screen mode you don't see any ui element at all. By the way, "Tabs on Top" is an option accessible by main context menu. You can enable/disable it just like menubar and bookmarks toolbar.

sorry, meant "maximized". Full-screen is a bit different, yes.

I don't know that I've seen the "tabs on top" preference... they're always on the top, with plugins doing side-tabs. I'll look for it some time though.

Yes, you can see them also with maximized window. Here is a screenshot to find the option: http://i.imgur.com/6JJcU.jpg

I think they enabled it by default a while back to further match Chrome ui.
