I'm not following this thread, and I can't speak
to what might be needed for mouse behavior on the
tab bar.

But in general it should (must) be the case that
users can continue to customize option
`mouse-1-click-follows-link' to nil, to get the
sane (and once default Emacs) behavior of mouse-1
acting differently from mouse-2 -- in particular
to let mouse-1 just set point (or drag), without
any fiddling with delays etc.

Emacs overriding that, to force mouse-1 on a link
to act like mouse-2 on a link, would be wrong, IMO.
(But again, maybe tab bar needs to be an exception
for some special reason.)

Apologies if my comment is off-topic.
