Tabs are a not a bad way to go, I see Thunderbird email client starting
to use tabs rather than pop up a lot of windows. Personally I prefer the
app to "contain itself".

Hello Gnome Shell developers and users,

I just got one respond on my last email. I'm glad that it was a positive
one. However I'm wondering why I didn't get more. Is it because people
don't like the idea or 
are there just very few people on this mailing list?

Nonetheless I made a new mock-up ;-) !

The differences with the former 
mock-up is:
* Moved the 'add app' button to the right because this is 
something that users shouldn't need to use often.

If you want, 
you easily simulate 
the Gnome Shell Tabbed Interface:
* Move the 
Window list to the top panel (off course this doesn't work exactly 
as the 'Application menu' in Gnome Shell!!)
* Open Google Chrome

The advantage of having the applications and the tabs at the top of the
screen is that you can work much more 
efficiently. You just need to move the mouse just a few centimetres to
get where you want. But 
the most important advantage is that the 
applications are always in 
view of the user and that he or she doesn't have to zoom out just to see
what is open or closed. 

I'm hoping on a little more feedback his time ;-).

Yours sincerely,

Jeroen
