Remember: Liberty to make fancy stuff is good only if you make use of

Didn't I said that yesterday? ;-)
What stuff do you have in mind? A tab bar is just a way to switch
between documents.
Your solution is good for single window LyX because then the tab bar
would just offer the same document list as the View menu.
With multiple windows (views really), we have a problem. On one hand, I
want to have access to the full View menu on any windows (there is a bug
there by the way(*)). On the second hand I don't want the tab bar to
have the exact same contents in every window.
Using a tab widget would enable me to choose very easily which tabs I
want in this window and which other I want in this other window. It will
also permit to "detach" a tab onto a new window.
All this would be very easy to implement with very minimal code if we
goes the QTabWidget way. I would just be a matter of adding/removing
workareas (with their attached BufferView and thus Buffer) to the LyXViews.
