Thanks for pointing me out to this feature request.

Indeed, it's possible to customize `tab-line-tabs-function' to show
all buffers. But showing hundreds of buffers should not be a problem
because the tab-line supports scrolling. Then as you already mentioned
the same function could also do automatic sorting, so e.g. "source.cpp"
comes after "source.h" when sorted by file extension as R. Diez wants.
