"Autohide tabs bar if one document opened"
-
add option, please

I’m not sure that many would agree with you on that request.
I personally hate when tab bars and similar items disappear or reappear depending on some condition that I may not know about. Further, there are actions that might be easiest to access from the tab bar right-click menu – even if you only have one document open at the time; by hiding the tab bar, you get rid of that easy access to those options. But mine isn’t the only opinion out there, or the only one that matters.
In case you didn’t know: this forum is not the feature request location. If you do want to request such a feature, you will have to follow the instructions in that link. When you do, I suggest including more than one sentence in your request – make it obvious what you are asking for, and make sure to suggest that the option be selectable from the Preferences > General > Tab Bar settings. If you do make a request by following those instructions, make sure you paste a link to that request issue in this topic, so other readers can see that you did.

A three-word “command” to developers; isn’t going to get very far.
Regardless, there’s an open issue on it, and a script workaround; see HERE.

This is a very good point.
The only (slight) downside I can see to showing the tab bar when there is only one document is that a small bit of vertical screen real estate is “wasted”.I’d forget about it, and just be okay with the tab bar showing, even with only one doc.
