Interesting to see the focus-follows-mouse and no-autoraise combination mentioned several times. In contrast, I use focus-follows-mouse with autoraise (with 0 delay). It allows me to have a large image window that partly covers 2 palette windows on the sides. Quick access to tools and settings and large image view at the same time :) Now from my understanding, the reason peter doesn't want single-window with tabs combined with split views is simply that it would make it unclear, which image the palettes and menu refer to. No matter how you would try to deal with that, you always get a huge pile of additional complexity. Tempting to say: Allow split views via shift/ctrl-selecting tabs, have all commands either affect both, or for those where that doesn't make sense, disable them. Or duplicate the menu per split view. Also have the split appear in the layers, channels and paths palettes.
