Some part of this is an argument about mere placement of UI elements. That should be left for the end user to customize, perhaps similar to the way that buttons at the top (Back, Forward, Stop, Refresh, Home, etc.) can be ordered or deleted by Button3 > Customize.... More generally, layout could be arranged by a TeX description, a tree map with constraints (minimum pixels, percentage of width or height, ...), or a loadable Python module.

Or a simple drag-n-drop in a special mode with wobbly controls. Seriously CSS should be used to give users exactly the layout they want, one may prefer the tabs to be centered with two lines of them and split the screen like Vim does.

Firefox's UI is written in XUL, which actually does use CSS for layout. There is an extension called Stylish to allow you to change this.
