That is part of the "environment" of the page (or the template). You  
can take a look at it by invoking the Edit Design command (or Ctrl+D  
on Mac). You will see that you actually have different environments  
for different pages (you see the name in the Location), but all embed  
(with "+") the /environment/header+ structure.

If you further navigate to +/environment/header+ using the sitemap at  
the bottom, you will get to a so called meta page. If you edit the  
page, you will see that it embeds +/environment/sitetitle+. This is  
the title that appears at the top. Navigate there and edit it to add  
whatever you want.

Go to /systemmanagement and edit the user.

In the +/environment/header+ you will see that it embeds a +/ 
environment/menu+. Navigate there, and you will further see that if  
you edit it, it's not a page but it is a component. Then invoke  
Settings (or Ctrl+T) and you can add a new item in the list. The nice  
property of the Menu component is that it adds an "active" class to  
the most specific link that it finds in the text of the component.  
This is how we can render the active tab.

Cheers,
Doru
