So you're saying only to do the tab code in the first slotCreateNewWindow (the 
one you changed in the cvs).

Ok, I'll commit what I have now then.  And I'll write up a planned feature 
list very soon.

I made some code that allowed for the switching of tabs, but unfortunately I 
couldn't figure out how to catch keyboard events (e.g. Shift+Left/Right), so 
I couldn't finish it.  I tried KAccel, but it didn't seem to work.  If you'd 
like, I could commit the part where I add slot functions to go left and 
right, and someone else could fill in the rest.

As for the query close dialog, I have that too, but it doesn't have the "Don't 
show this in the future" check box.  Is there an easy way to do that?  
Perhaps with a static method from KMessageBox?  Or would I have to use 
KDialog?  Should I commit it anyway?

As for close buttons, that would definitely involve custom widget painting, 
something which I have absolutely no experience with, so I probably won't be 
working on that.
