As a follow-up on #528, which adds tabs to the touch bar, allow the user to configure whether tabs or buffers should be shown in the touch bar. As far as I know, the intended use of tabs is very limited in vim and one is encouraged to use buffers instead.
While I do think this should be configurable, I do want to say — the Touch Bar has very limited space; it's pretty non-ideal for buffers. The bufferlist already built-in to VimR is really great for that; but I think that showing tabs in the Touch Bar actually makes a lot of sense.
Just my 2¢: keep tabs-when-there-are-more-than-one as the default, include an option for buffers instead! <3
I would also appreciate an option to have the touch bar display buffers as opposed to tabs, as I rarely use tabs at all, preferring to just operate using buffers and windows.
