With scaling I mean that you can run many clients without
cutting off their titles in stacking mode, with tabbing they
would be cut off:

Stacking
-----------------------------------------------------
| foofoffofo foofoffofofofo foofofofoffofo ofofof |
-----------------------------------------------------
| bar bar baaaaaarb barbar bar |

| baz baz baz bazbazbazbazb bazbabzbazbaz |
-----------------------------------------------------

Tabbing
-----------------------------------------------------
| foofofofofof f...| bar bar bar... | baz baz ba... |
-----------------------------------------------------

The more clients you run, the worse gets tabbing.
