and, obviously, decorated layouts too.

I just pushed a patch that simplifies a bit 'simpleTabBar', which now
includes the resizeVertical modifier too.

And to the above is now:
 
Tall 1 (2/100) (1/2) */*  simpleTabBar (Tall 1 (2/100) (1/2) *|* simpleFloat)

tarBar will probably require the resize modifier. I introduced
resizeHorizontalRight and resizeVerticalBottom too. The later can be
used for creating a bar of tabs at the bottom of the screen, like:

tabBar shrinkText defaultTheme Bottom (resizeVerticalBottom 20 (Tall 1 (2/100) (1/2)))

which will produce:

(Just to let you know if you get the latest darcs bits).
