well, its there on purpose as an artefact of splitting the notebook to form two notebooks, done because no one was completely happy with any of the GtkNotebook built-in overflow mechanisms. I'm not entirely sure what better solution I can manufacture at this point
Tabs with "<" and ">" buttons at the edges received low reviews?
yeah, the major issue seems to be that all tabs are not visible at the same time. Putting the tab down the left when they overflow only works until there are too many to fit down the left then the same problem arises. Putting two notebooks together to give a double deck appearance runs into the issue that there has to be an active tab in each notebook. Hence this extra "down arrow" tab which is supposed to indicate that the top notebook has overflowed down to the bottom notebook. Clicking it does nothing because its already the current entry.
I may be able to css theme it into invisibility, at least on >= 3.20 gtk
