It is also in part to deal with the MDI "multiple document windows
contained entirely within one large window representing the
application" paradigm that has been dominant on some other
platforms for the past couple of decades. No IDE on the Macintosh
that I know of used this type of interface prior to the release of
Mac OS X.
I can see the usefulness in some situations. I think I would find it
most useful if it worked like Safari's tabs. That is, it used tabs,
and I could have multiple windows open, but each could have one or
more tabs in it. If I can only have one window that holds multiple
documents that's a bit too restrictive for my tastes. But, maybe
Xcode 3 already does what I want. I expect to be able to play with it
some in the next few days (I downloaded a copy of Leopard but there's
some kind of problem with it).
