What UI do you imagine for this? When windows get minimized, do they get
visualized in some xmonad-drawn way? In the dzen? Can multiple windows
be minimized, and if so, how does one select which to restore?

(To answer your question: no, I haven't run into that. I have run into
the desire to "split" a window frame into multiple tabs.)

That would be a good idea, yes. Somewhat related are MultiToggle and
ToggleLayouts.
