It seems to work the same way Window Maker and all the NeXT descended
WM's work. They have the same launcher/taskbar icon, AFAIR.
Seems useful, but I wonder how would management of MANY windows of
the same type occur. Remember, not all applications use tabs, not all
users use tabbed WM or multiple desktops.

Interesting idea though :)
