A simple way to emulate this would be to create multiple vertical
windows within a frame, and load a custom agenda view into each one,
with desired TODO keywords in each.

However, I just realized that Org does not seem to allow more than one
agenda view to be open simultaneously, I guess because of its use of
global state.  Maybe it would be possible to hack something up using
org-agenda-append-agenda to "append" into a different frame...
