Bug Description

The tabs are now a lot bigger than before. I have compared them to Epiphany, Galeon, Firefox and Liferea and they are at least 6 pixels taller.

It make the terminal look really clunky and unpolished.

Yes, this is a definite regression. Also, tabs previously displayed the dynamic window title string (if available) rather than just "Terminal". Another definite regression.
