Comment:

 I've only had time to give this a read-through, but a general +1 on where
 things are going. :)

 A couple thoughts:

 * Adding more specific capability checks makes sense. I'd probably prefer
 to introduce that granularity in another ticket as it will involve
 accounting for the current `manage_sites` capability in a back-compat way.
 * I do wonder if `network_edit_site_tabs` is the right place to loop
 through the capabilities. Some of that could instead be handled by plugins
 as they choose whether or not to add a tab to the filter.
 * What would it look like to exclude the core provided tabs from the
 `network_edit_site_tabs` filter? Once more granular capabilities are
 available, tabs could be hidden on a cap check. This would align more with
 the result of visiting each of these pages directly.
 * I'm not sure about the before/after HTML args for the tab output.
