Well, there's quite possibly some confusion going on. What I mean is this:

1. We have a bunch of buttons on bottom.
2. When a button is clicked a dock widget is shown.
3. Inside that doc widget there's a single tool view widget.

What I want is for a single dock widget to show several tool view widgets,
alongside, without any tabs. I want such behaviour to be by default, but
allow the user to move tool views.
