I don’t know why it doesn’t work to edit the tab width by editing the following two preferences in about:config in Firefox 4 Beta 4:
browser.tabs.tabMaxWidth
browser.tabs.tabMinWidth
But I found the add-on Custom Tab Width that does the job! The strange thing is that it looks like the add-on changes those two preferences, and that apparently works. I guess that the add-on edits something more… But it works!

If you don’t know that Firefox Panorama is, which is included in the Firefox 4 Beta, check out the video on this page:
I must say that I really don’t get the point of this feature. Why do we need to have this panorama thing to organize tabs? Why not just open a second window, which is much easier to switch to instead of messing around with this panorama stuff? The only feature that would be needed then would be a way to close Firefox and all windows at once and save all of their tabs.
My point is – Firefox Panorama is pointless.

In earlier versions of Firefox I edited the browser.tabs.tabMinWidth in about:config to something about 20, to make my tabs smaller. But now it seems that this feature doesn’t work any longer, and all my tabs got their original sizes again. 
I feel a bit sad over this because I have always tons of tabs open (sometimes over 100 tabs, I’m serious!) and now it’s much harder to navigate through them.
