BTW, even a simple solution is more complicated because of the issue that reparenting a Scintilla editor is not really possible in a portable way ATM (see the october mail about windows problems). So for now it isn't sensible for anyone to work on ultra-configurable sub-windows, at least until the Scintilla issue is resolved in some way (and we agree we want to do it anyway ;-)). That said, simple things like configuring the message window to be vertical can probably be done with static containers, i.e. no actual moving of the main notebook control.
