CollapsibleTabs isn't hiding it, it's just that there's no room for it to be shown anywhere, so it slides under the Page/Discussion tabs. There will always be screen sizes where the layout looks like crap without adjusting the text size.

The collapsible tabs do not hide the read and view in these screen-shots, the read and view tabs are merely obscured by the article and discussion tabs. Before the collapsible tabs, any resolution below 800x600 was in danger of causing these kinds of tab-obscuring layout issues, especially in languages with long words like German and Polish. The collapsible tabs automatically hides some of the tabs, making that minimum resolution much closer to 640x480, but that's not the ONLY reason for it. The other reason is that it lets us put extra items at the tab level, like "Add Topic" for most users.

I think we may want to solve this problem by setting a minimum width. The CSS min-width property is not generally supported right now, so other tricks like using a 1px tall 800px wide transparent png on the page may work.

Considering the above comment, changing the status of the bug from Resolved Invalid to Resolved later.

Actually, this has been done long before in bug 20234, but obviously choosing the right component didn't help to get this year old bug fixed.

Doesn't matter if the issue still exists.
Marking as dup of bug 20234.
