The first thing chrome said is that tabs show in the task switcher. And that you can disable this in the settings. Then it placed a settings link right under the text to turn it off first-thing.

Personally, I think people just don't like change. A lot of the things — camera shutter sound, out of bounds scrolling — they're not actual complaints. They sound more like "this is different and I'm not used to it". OTOH, some are definitely valid.

I wonder if there's any easy way to roll out design changes for the masses which doesn't cause uproar. I swear this happens every single time.
