Well, tab bars are not sufficient for fifteen or fifty windows either. I've already proposed one-app-one-window with shell-side tabs... IMO it would work better than client-side tabbars, if overflow handling is done right. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ec5JsMpfVj8/T3Jkc41lMHI/AAAAAAAAAzw/bNVMvOBWLLQ/s1600/playlist.png http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Ry5CEaBbKnA/T3JiUVRSrOI/AAAAAAAAAzg/5dgG0sjjrac/s1600/panel.png http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-06NsscSyKQw/T3JkvouSbJI/AAAAAAAAAz4/nCX3hXx7GGA/s1600/notifications.png Hopefully someday I'll make fancy mockups of that... -- Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff OS architect @ elementary
