s/Wether/Whether/ ?
But more importantly, please document this in runtime/help/options.md.
As for this data/micro.json, I'm not even sure what it is for... Ok, just looked it up: it is some strange thing introduced in #2697 "to add intellisence for micro config", whatever that means. Basically we don't care about keeping it up to date.

nit: a separate variable doesn't seem useful here, we can just do if len(t.List) > 1 || config.GetGlobalOption("tabalwaysshow").(bool)?
Same for Display() below.

This might not be the perfect way to solve this problem, but I figured that I would dive into the codebase and give it a go before asking for another feature request for something this small.
I think, if we're allowing customisability of the tab bar (reversing colour-theme, etc), that we should also allow the option to set the tab bar to "always show". This pull does that.
Discussion encouraged.
