Description Andrew Shark 2022-04-11 12:48:33 UTC 
When working with many documents, it is inconvenient that tabs hides themselves from the tabbar. I often loose a spot where my another document is, and start searching it again in my tabs.

This bug is similar to Bug #440585 - the same problem, but in Kate editor. Fixed by Waqar by not showing the icon, instead making the text italic.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open many documents so your tabs touches the right edge of the window, so you can scroll the tabs left and right.
2. Scroll to the right tabs (make all tabs at the right visible).
3. Go to the pre-last tab and make any change to that document.

OBSERVED RESULT
The tabs bar is automatically scrolled to the position of when current document is at the right side of the window.

EXPECTED RESULT
The tab bar stays not scrolled.
