 > I'm also still wondering why these tabs look like the main navigation on
 Twitter... Why not use the tabs we already have?

 A couple thoughts behind this. The tabs you mention already convey a page-
 reload feeling of slowness since they are used in that way across the
 admin (as far as I know). I also think they feel outdated in the context
 of mp6. I think we can do better, specially for any single-page section we
 work on. My proposal borrows from the new "white boxes" we use in
 Dashboard and elsewhere extensively. The thick borders are also used on
 the left side for alerts and plugin pages. Of course, this can — and
 should — keep improving!

 Disclaimer: I actually worked on the tabs you mention back in the day as
 one of my first contributions :)
