Don't even think about removing the tabs:
-the ends of the cells are aluminum, so you have to use special flux which is nasty
-since the ends are aluminum, they soak up a lot of heat which makes soldering more difficult

Using the tabs is perfectly fine, I've got 5 packs (40 cells total) soldered together using them.
