 > Yes, the tabs are not supported. The feature is dependent on a specific
 cairo version. I have cc'ed m_anish he should know more about it. And
 closing the last tab exists browse I think is a known bug (should be here
 in the tracker).

 AFAIK, browse won't enable the multiple tabs feature if it detects Cairo
 version 1.8.10 or later
 ([http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/browse/repos/mainline/commits/ec88446758f58e3d4af4a6b4777321180b831ea7
 commit]). This was due to a possible bug in Cairo. However,
 [http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2155#comment:5 this] seems to suggest
 that the problem is somewhere else.
