OK.  But these should be per-frame tabs since a window configuration is
defined for frames.

We'd probably have to do the following things:

(1) When switching to another configuration make it easy to switch back to
    the last configuration.

(2) Provide a naming scheme suitable for tabs.

(3) Handle tab switching via the keyboard in an appropriate way.  For
    example, we could use a virtual, highlighted tab representing the
    current window configuration such that switching to the next or
    previous tab could be done with the necessary feedback.
