Elements of the MSO ribbon, including groups
Many of the controls on MS Office ribbons are divided into groups; see the
attached illustration. Our tabbed UI kinda-sorta has groups, or at least there
is the appearance of them.
It would be useful to make these more explicit and visible, and to help the
user to mentally perform the grouping of tabbar functionality, if we supported
the thin, wide labels at the bottom of groups which specify the group's title.
For example, MS Word's View tab has the following named groups: Views, Show,
Zoom, Window, Macros.
I'm not suggesting all controls should be in groups; nor that we should use the
same group decomposition as MS Office.
There is also the question of, if this feature is introduced, whether the user
should be able to toggle group titles on and off. Let's keep that one as "doers
decide" if this feature is approved.
