Shortly after the release of the Safari 4 beta, I (and apparently thousands of others across the net) extracted the text strings from the binary, looking for hidden preferences to tweak the latest version of the flagship OS X browser. One of the first tweaks to be discovered was the command to move the tab bar back underneath the bookmarks bar. Since then, others have been discovered (by many people), so I thought it might be useful to cover all of these hidden preferences in one consolidated hint.
