Comment(by garycmartin):

 I do like tabs that expand to take up all available space maximising hit
 targets, providing maximum space for the tab titles, and no magic numbers
 for width. However with our flat dark grey toolbar and tab backgrounds (no
 shading, no edges) the default start case with just one full width tab
 doesn't look very distinctive as a tab, but more a fat toolbar with an
 unusual light grey square icon with a (+) inside on the right. Perhaps a
 compromise could be start with a tab size that leaves enough room for
 another of equal width, e.g. start at 50% width tab, 50% width empty light
 grey fill with the (+) icon at right.
