Hmm, nice shots, but this looks to be an issue with bluecurve. After all
simple ideal uses other methods to create the tabs than ideal from kmdi
and I guess bluecurve renders one different than the other. With
lipstick I don't have so much space. 

Anyway, kmdi-support won't go in kdev3.4, it's just not the default
anymore, which IMHO is good.
