Your screenshot shows the classic MDI paradigm. KDE is actively discouraging
MDI for usability reasons. Instead of mini-windows within the main window,
everything is supposed to be docked along an edge as a panel or toolbar.
There are no current screenshots up at the website, so I slapped one up on
mine real quick: http://www.usermode.org/krayon.png, for a limited time.

That is an excellent idea.
