And people will turn it off by mistake, or forget they turned it on, and write tutorials people can't follow, or get stuck... etc etc. I admit I can see a lot of use in a context (pop-up) menu in the drop area of the toolbox, maybe with a button for it, as in the main image window - it'd have a list of active windows to choose from, and maybe the File menu.

The trend seems to be towards single-window with tabs, although long-term I for one would rather see multiple windows with tabs. > 6.

The toolbox (it's not actually a toolbar) is just one of many gimp palettes... There's something to be said for running multiple instances of gimp: for one thing you get more control on where files are loaded and saved on a per-project basis.
