I'd say that dwm's monocle layout could already be considered a "tab"
mode, since it overlaps several windows (you'd only miss

I think the case is this:

If you use a tree based model, adding a tabbed mechanism is trivial,

You could give your tabs domain names so you can find them better. Did

Three words: Modu la rity.
I'm not sure why tabbed exist when it's a window management feature.
for example i3, a tiling window manager supports tabs as part of it's
