Hi Community,

I want my tabs name to change based on a file loaded at runtime.  
Therefore, I tried to

- set a callback on the textfield to update the tab.label
- set a callback on the tab’s select() method.

None of these do work. Is there a possibility to implement something like this? See this minimal working example. The tab’s label should change from “initial tab name” to “updated tab name”

```auto
import gradio as gr
import os

os.environ["no_proxy"] = "localhost,127.0.0.1,::1"

def print_me():
    print("print me called.")
    some_tab.label="updated tab name"
    
with gr.Blocks() as demo:
    with gr.Tab(label="initial tab name") as some_tab:
        textfield = gr.Text("put some text here", interactive=True)
  
    # initial try
    textfield.change(print_me, None, None)
    # some other tries
    some_tab.select(print_me, None, None)

demo.launch()

```
