Add vertical tabs option in left sidebar (similar to "open editors" in VS Code)

Is your feature request related to a problem?
N/A
Describe the solution you'd like
Add an option for a vertical tabs pane above the project pane. The project tree view doesn't need the entire height of the window (often noise or empty space) and disabling the horizontal tab bar will reclaim ~2 rows in the editor pane.
If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

For me personally having a list of all of the open tabs (all of the open files) does not have to be in the left side bar....
It could be displayed similar to the way the command palette is displayed and then you would go ahead and select the file you want to come into focus to work on.

Hey @stormasm, does this user suggest a workflow that would work for what you are describing here?

This would work equally well for me, most of the time I don't even show the sidebar in IntelliJ. As long as I can hide the mostly empty tab bar and use that space for code, while still getting some visual feedback when switching buffers, I'm happy.
Another option that I would appreciate would be combining the title bar and the tab bar.
@JosephTLyons the problem with the file finder approach for solving this particular problem is that you have to know in advance what you are looking for ---- because until you start typing something the file finder is blank (correct ?).
The file finder starts out when you hit Cmd P with nothing in it...
Sometimes I just want to see all of the files I have open when there are too many tabs so I can start deleting the tabs I no longer want...
And / or I want to see what I was working on yesterday or earlier in the day and seeing the list of files / tabs helps me remember...

ah yes, what about if the file finder worked more like VS Code, where in its default state (after being launched) it showed opened files at the top of the list? Just spitballing some ideas here.
this is how Lapce does it when you have split panes
VSCode's similar "Open Editors" section has a "Save all" button. It's a lifesaver, especially with projects where multiple files saved in sequence trigger rebuilds and rebuild-cancellations, or in the worst case, multiple full rebuilds.
Would be great if Zed also had a "Save all" button, and I felt this was the most suitable issue to bring this up.
There is this concept:

"cmd-alt-s": "workspace::SaveAll",
