That's not entirely trivial to make, definitely would require some coding.

That is not currently possible, I'm afraid.  I'm loath to try to implement
such a thing myself, so it'll have to be based on what GTK offers.  What
I'd like is something like KDE's draggable subwindows, but possibly a
GtkNoteBook and the toolbox together in a window would be an alternative. 
I'd like it to be user configurable in some other way than through
preferences, but that may be a little much.  Maybe the preferences setting
should be "Gimp-like UI" (menu on right mouse, loose windows) vs.
non-Gimp-like (menubar, one window with tabs).
