Re: Tab bar (was: Neat features in Eclipse editor)

[Richard Stallman]

    A graphical tab bar has two special buttons: on the left side to create
    a new tab, and on the right side to close the current tab.  Between them
    there is a row of tabs that represent different window configurations.

Does the tab bar belong to one window
or does it belong to a frame?
You say that a tab represents a "window configuration".
That seems to suggest that the tabs belong to a frame.

What we need most, in regard to tabs, is a row of tabs
that belongs to a window, with each tab specifying something
to display in that window.
