Tabs

What I would really like to see* in KOffice is tabs, like in Konqueror. I never saw an office suite that has such a simple but cool feature.

* Plus proper right-to-left support, at least like OpenOffice.org

Well, good thing for you since KOffice has been supporting both those features since 1.4 (at least). :-)

Well, the problem is that tabbing is only supported in the KOffice Workspace instead of providing tabbed documents in Kword itself. Mostly, I find myself working with different documents or different spreadsheets or different images and therefore do not like everything in a big overloaded application like the old Staroffice used to be.

Personally, I find the KOffice Workspace not an adequate solution as 1) switching between two Kword documents results in annoying flickering of the toolbars 2) switching between KOffice Workspace tabs is slow.

Furthermore, switching between two different applications such a Kword and e.g. a Krita is even more annoying as then the toolbars' positions and icons jump around even more.

IIRC Lotus Word Pro had tabbed documents many years ago. Long before it became cool.
