OmniWeb 5 - Powerful and feature-laden web browser
I'm surprised that you marked OW down due to its tab implementation. OK you might not like the style, that is your POV, but there are other reasons why OmniGroup went this route - one is so you can manipulate the tabs using standard Mac UI conventions: drag and drop them to re-order them in the drawer, copy/cut paste them to the drawers of other windows (or into other Workspaces), copy/paste them to other applications (where they will appear as the URL for the tab), option-drag to duplicate, shift/command-click to select multiple tabs at once, double click to open in a new window (and close in the old) and so forth. So if anything, you can deduct one for the style and add one or two for the bonus of these added features.

The thing that bothers me about the vertical tabs is that they're just not as usable for my workflow. I use about 15 to 25 tabs when doing the daily site updates, and the horizontal layout is ingrained in my muscle memory, and seems notably faster to me even after using OW for a couple of weeks. Perhpas I'll eventually get over it, but even if I don't, the other great features more than make up for the one minor irritation I have with the tabs.
