Finally I'm not sure if I'm just confused or having trouble 
understanding your english, but it sounds to me as if what you are 
suggesting to me to do is exactly what I said was MY idea in my first post!

Your posts are not helpful. Yes, I want to use multiple GtkTreeModels. 
It was not even the main topic of this thread to discuss this.

If you look at the subject line, my real question was:

"How do I get a tab bar that looks like the one in a GtkNotebook without 
the implied functionality of a notebook an without abusing controls."
