Can't agree more with this. Two rows of tabs is ridiculously clunky  
and not like anything else in the OS that I can think of, except  
crappy X11 apps.

For those who want to set Camino apart from said browser:

The drop-down arrow also did not originate with Safari, recall that  
the toolbar itself started this convention, with an identical UI  
widget for accessing additional toolbar buttons when the window isn't  
wide enough. (See Preview for an easy example.)
