Yes, I've never understood why anyone, given a decent windowing system,
would want any application to separately hide stuff that you should be
able to view and manipulate independently.  The only advantage I can see
to hiding things behind tabs is that it gives you a way to close an
application and all the windows it controls in one step.  Is there some
way to close all firefox (or OOo or any other application's) windows
if they were opened separately?
