It should be possible. With gedit_window_get_ui_manager you can get the
UIManager for the gedit window and then you can get the menu bar using 
gtk_ui_manager_get_widget (manager, "/MenuBar"); and call
gtk_widget_hide

Yes, see
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gedit-plugins/trunk/plugins/showtabbar/gedit-show-tabbar-plugin.c?view=markup

With the get_notebook function (from the above link) you can get a
reference to the notebook. Then you can use gtk_notebook_set_show_tabs.

Ciao,
Paolo
