Browser Tabs #243

Would it be possible/desirable to implement browser tabs?

e.g. ctrl+click a link to open the link target in a new tab

I'm personally in favor of not having tabs since it keeps each window more minimal and encourages spatially arranging several windows and closing things when it gets too cluttered.

Outside of that it's actually pretty tricky to get tabs to work in electron and would require tracking lots of state.

I was also hoping that folks could rely more on their operating system for stuff like macos tabs instead of having it done at the electron level.

What's the main advantage of having tabs for you? I understand that that's the default in all other browsers, but it'd be nice to have other reasons than it being standard.
