I don't think this is tractable with GTK directly (the area near the
tabs is Notebook private), but I let other list member correct me if
I'm wrong.

You can use gtk_notebook_set_tab_label_packing() to control the
expansion of tabs, but default is already FALSE for the tab-expand
property so your tabs should already be compact.

The widget you give as the tab label can be whatever widget you want.
So create an hbox, put your image, your label and a button in it and
give it as the tab_label argument to gtk_notebook_append_page() for
instance.
