Hi Joe,

I wasn't sure if your reply was intended for the list as well...  I'm cc'ing it just in case.

I mean a possibility of having multiple screens in one window so that you show only one and the other ones are hidden and you can bring any one to the fron with a click (and/or, even better, a key stroke).  I guess they call them panels as well...  You get those usually in preferences dialog boxes in various apps (hmm... I don't have any examples off hand...  OpenOffice has it I think).
