What are the possible options?

1. Use something like word-wrap in the tab-bar to wrap
   to the second line non-broken tabs at tab boundaries;

2. Disable wrapping to the second line since it's not supported in -nw;

3. Then truncate tab names to fit all tabs into the first line;

4. Or don't truncate but allow scrolling tabs with mouse wheel;
