Hmm, do we want the tab-bar to be per-frame, or per-emacs-window? For "switching buffer" use of tabs, per-emacs-window seems like it might be more useful, though obviously eating more screen real-estate. [With such a setup, it would be useful to have "non-tabbed" and "tabbed" emacs windows though I don't know how that UI would work...] -Miles -- Run away! Run away!
