Right !

in the gb1 version, the workspace component was like the windows one
... with child windows.. in a working area...

But it was too hardly linked to qt ... and not really used in Linux
common interfaces... So Benoit and many of us, after a long long
exchange of mail, have take the decision to use a tabbed MDI
interface... Like you can see in the gambas ide, gedit, kate, quanta,
web broswers, etc

So, i think you can try to construct your interface around this idea
