Another reason I'd say tabs need to be in the title bar (instead of the 3rd
"new" tab-bar) is the differences in toolbars between programs. Say you have a
Writer & Calc file open. If you switch between them, they may have differing
lines of toolbars at the top ... which in effect would move the tab-bar up/down
- this could become quite irritating after a while.

Other than that, I can see 2 solutions if we don't go with the title-bar tabs:

1) Use a constant "toolbar" design like in the Renaissance project. This is
probably also one of M$'s "Fluent" design reasons (i.e. Ribbon). But even some
of the other proposals could work for this (e.g.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Proposal_by_Johannes_Eva#14.1_More_about_toolbars
)

2) Only have tabs per program. I.e. don't mix Calc files with Writer files, with
Draw, with Base, etc.

As to the other "related" issue of "Divisions" inside the ODT file. If I
understand correctly, these are available in OOo Writer if you use Master
Documents. Then you have a floating / docked sidebar called the Navigator, which
has a list of Sections which you can double click to goto that section.

This I'd suggest having as tabs at the bottom, since the tabs would only have
reference to the current document. Similar to the tabs in Calc only pertinent to
the current ODS file. At least this would be consistent!
