Not being able to see more than one file at a time seems to be a big enough limitation that if the tabs are what is preventing the feature then they should be re-thought. (Honestly, I'm sure there is a way to have both tabs and multi-file-editing, but I rate the latter much more important than the former.) The single file limitation means I have to keep vim running in other terminal windows just so I can see files related to the one I'm working on. That's not cool. I want to be in IDEA all the time!
