3. Move the mouse to the bottom of the screen... no tabs.
4. Move the mouse to the top of the screen... Look! the tab bar appears at the bottom of the screen!

still valid (and kinda funny) for
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2a1pre) Gecko/20090316 Minefield/3.2a1pre ID:20090316044350

either in fullscreen mode the tabbar should be hardcoded to the top *or* fullscreen mode should acknowledge the css hack.
