	I've been thinking about this and I'm curious about something...  What
is the benefit of this switch?  It doesn't make any sense to open
another terminal with a second tab running a program like this.  You'd
either want to run the program on an existing terminal or run it in it's
own terminal.  So what's the rational for --tab performing in the
existing way?
