1018478 - Clean up tab labels on small toolboxes

Status: NEW

Description

[Dave Camp (:dcamp)]

There's a point, when making the toolbox smaller, at which the labels on the tabs start being more trouble than they're worth:

We should responsive-design them away earlier than that.

Wow. 4 years without a fix. I really can't believe that this does not annoy anyone else..

I mean someone made the icons disappear on smaller screens. So, why doesn't the text disappear instead of the icons? This makes sooo much more sense. Because the text is almost impossible to read but the icons stay clear even on very small screens.
