Not all tabs names are shown if there's not enough space for full file names

I really really like the plugin but this is something that's gotten pretty annoying: If there are too many tabs opened to display the full names of all of them and this plugin is installed this happens:

The first tab names are just not shown, even if I go to the first tab. The default Vim behaviour is this:

Only parts of the fill names are shown. While the first image may look nicer on the first look it actually makes it harder to find the tabs I don't need anymore. Is it possible to implement an option for the default Vim behaviour? Another nice behaviour would also be if the tabs next to the one currently in focus are shown, similiarly to how Safari does it.

I also want to report this. I like this plugin. But it sounds like the latest modification happened on 4 years ago.

I'd be happy to take a pull request that implements this behavior. I never have more than a few tabs open so I'm not really affected by the lack of this feature. This plugin meets my needs as is, which I guess is why I haven't updated it in 4 years.

I'll leave this issue open in case anyone wants to take a stab at it.
