(this thread actually started on kde-core-devel, but I'm not on that so this 
seems like a good place to go, sorry for posting over)

Hi,

I know I mailed here about a tab rewrite (for konqueror) a while back, and 
nothing really materialized.  But this time, I really think that my current 
version works quite acceptably.  Its about as good as the current 
implementation we have and isn't based on QTabWidget, so there's much room 
for improvement which can be done quite easily.  And even though this is for 
konqueror, it could pretty easily be made into an independent widget.  I 
figure if you want to see it in action, you can just see it in konqueror for 
now.  If you want, I'd even be willing to start making this its own widget, 
you just have to point me in the right direction i guess.  I don't have as 
much time now with school, but I'm fairly sure I can work around that.
