In my case i thought it was funny b/c they made it look more like chrome but that is one of the reasons I do not use chrome. For me the tabs should be directly above the web page to reduce the time it takes to go from one to the next. My interface is very exact and is set up for speed. I often need to be able to do a lot of stuff at once or quickly access information.
The way I see it is that the things that are used most often should be closest to the center. I use the webpage that I am reading the most followed by the tabs so they are directly above that. The new tab button is directly after the last tab so its location does change it is always in an easy place b/c I may make a new tab but then go back to the last tab and my mouse is already there. I also have a universal tab close button on the far right so that I can quickly close out of a bunch of tabs without needing to move the mouse around. The next most used thing is the bookmarks so that is above the tabs. Next is my gmail accounts, weather information and some tools that aid in web design. These are always at the bottom so I can quickly glance or access them. Next is the address bar and search bar which I use less than bookmarks so that is at the top along with the send to phone button next to the address bar. I installed a mod now to give me the rss notification in the address bar which helps me access content faster. I now use the new menu button for the top and like how the options have been consolidated.
I am just happy that we live in a time where we at least have all of these options so we can ensure the interface is right for us. Just imagine if we were using the same interfaces as 10 years ago!
