Sorry, I didn't know that you expected that I should review your patch -
I was silent because your last patch has no changes in tab-line.el,
so I have no more objections in this regard.

As for combining of tabs and the tool-bar on the tab-line,
I don't think this is feasible to achieve a consistent solution.
So users have to choose only one feature at a time:
whether buffer tabs in the tab-line or the window-local tool-bar.
