   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127892
   + introduce an option to reduce margins on sheet tabs
   + new design was choosen carefully, difference is just a few pixels => no options needed (Pedro)
   + according screenshot by OP there seems to be an issue with the classic theme (XP-like)

   + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=128421
   + don't think it's UX problem. It should be general enhancement (Roman)
