Hi Ulai-
All of the palette instructions are for Interface Builder 2 - the new IB3
has a different plug-in architecture. You will have to use the framework
and a custom view in IB with the more modern tools (until someone crafts up
an IB3 plugin :-)
It does have the "merge" behavior you seek, depending on which tab style
you assign to the control. There are a number of apps using the control to
that effect. Adium is probably the most notable of the group, and it is
their people who maintain the latest version at googlecode.
I was the original author of the control, and you can see it in action
(merged and all) in Pandora:

It has since been much improved, and I'm a little out of touch with it -
sorry I can't be of more help!
