So to use tabbed with Xinerama, you want something that looks like this:
defaultLayouts = [ tiled , mirror tiled , tabbed shrinkText defaultTConf ]
ie, don't use the "simpleStacking" combinator.
I realize that the documentation in Tabbed.hs tells you to do something
that won't work, and I realize we need to fix that. I just don't want to
change that without first understanding what SimpleStacking is/was
supposed to do. (It looks like it's supposed to keep a focus stack of
sorts?)
David, any input on this would be very much appreciated.
