Let's avoid tab, per the previous comment.

Done.

Fix "tab helper"

[blundell, 2013/07/02 16:16:37]

Done.

[stuartmorgan, 2013/07/02 15:24:26]

Pretty sure this isn't a concern for iOS :) Just say "This key should be defined
in the .cc file of each WebStateUserData" or similar.

[blundell, 2013/07/02 16:16:37]

Done.
