Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Current tab styling is ugly, it would be better if some customization options are added:

  1. Custom Tabs Position: {Top, Bottom, Sides}
  2. Custom Tabs height and font size (Affects oversized + button and down pointing arrow too)
  3. Tab opacity and color.
  4. Dynamic app icon set per active tab.
  5. Custom static text for tab name
  6. Tab controls are too far away from window controls, reduce distance or change sides when tabs are on superior position

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Adding configuration options to the profiles.json accordingly should do the job
