The proposal was to introduce icon views instead of tabs. Looks tidy and
modern with icons and enough white space. But I remember harsh criticism
saying we cannot change all dialogs.

In this case we have *17* tabs. That would mean a lot of scrolling with your
mockup. I'm sure power users would complain very soon. If anything, I would
keep the small tab size and add icons left to the text, like:

[icon] label
[icon] label
...

Looks as a reasonable idea.
Wrt power users: one might expect a decent key stroke to move to the
next/previous page/tab. Maybe the same as currently.

We must realize that also dialogs with as little as two tabs exist. Then the
labels in a vertical row is a waste of space..

I have two ideas how to improve the situation:
1. Leave the tabs as they are (multiline), but don't switch rows when
selecting a tab from the top.

I would love to see some experimenting with that.
