[samigo-team] Samigo settings design revised--topic for May 7 Samigo meeting?

[Bryan Holladay]

The tabs design looks good.  I believe the main reason for the accordion
design was because of the number of sections in the settings page.  With
only 4 sections in the new design, tabs works just as well (if not better).
