ide - shorten tabs

could we have an option to leave out the file extension at the caption of the tab-strap, or any other way to shorten the tabs? or maybe a twofold tab-bar?
scrolling the tab-bar left/right with many sources open isn't nice.

Another useful solution I could think of would be multiline panels. In my opinion, they are clearly arranged, too.
The tool tab has also got multi line panels, so why not?

I think it's a rather rare phenomenon that one has that much sources opened.
perhaps it would also help to use shorter module names.
if you name them like "Project001_Modul007_GetHandleDatabase_Part2" sure there is not much space left....

actually i'm using short names already:

just leaving out the ".pb" and ".pbi" would make me happy, since it would shorten them a lot

It's important to see in the panel the extension of the source code, so that you can see wether it is a main source code (.pb) or an include file (.pbi).
@ Kaeru Gaman:
Of course, you can assign shorter names to your files, but in spite of that it would be helpful to have such a feature. Not everybody has got a resolution of 1900x1600 and not everyone has the IDE always maximized. Both problems don't leave enough space for the IDE. You must think of other situations, too.
