Instead of the previous patch I sent, this patch alters the datatypes used so that the layouts in Tabbed take in a Bool parameter that sets whether or not the tabbar should always be shown. simpleTabbed and simpleTabbedBottom remain unchanged. arossato's, droundy's and sjanssen's configs have been updated to reflect these changes.
Why isn't this Bool a part of the theme?
Themes are used for decorations other than tabbed -- this option doesn't make any sense for these decorations.
I suppose that's a philosophical point. But I do object to breaking the existing API. I'd much rather see an extra flag like this added as a new function (if we can't stick it in the Theme where it won't hurt anyone), so existing configs would continue working. The fact that this patch had to update three configs that don't use the new feature tells me it's broken. -- David Roundy Department of Physics Oregon State University
