If the Web console is not customizable (adding tabs), then allow a sub-menu system under the "Customize Menu bars" in web admin settings. As a user I want to be able to navigate to most things in Solarwinds using the menus in the menu bar and not having to search "Manage Nodes". As an administrator I want to be able to create a hierarchical system within Solarwinds for easy navigation from anywhere in solarwinds web console.
I manage several Wordpress Websites so I'll provide examples from Wordpress.org
Here is another example from CodeCanyon CSS - CSS3 Mega Drop Down Menu | CodeCanyon
If I can go into the "Customize Menu bars" under settings and create menus under menus. In Wordpress menu admin area below:

Each sub item you see is movable with a mouse, just as in the Solarwinds Web console, except the menus can be indented left and right to establish the parent child relationship.
This allows Solarwinds admins to create a nice hierarchy for navigation. Under each tab admins can create a different menu system.
Hopefully, you can release this in a intermediate release 10.4.1.1 or some small patch with a customizable sub-menu system feature added.
