I think tabbed windows, split windows for a single document ans split windows
for multiple document should be considered together. (sorry i'm french speaking)

I was proud to use OOo and i recommend it to many people, but i start to become
ashamed, when MS users show me the split windows feature of Word.

It is not a gadget but a feature that increase productivity dramatically when
working with multiple and long documents.

The 3 features are not necessary in only one case : if you have two screen witch
is pretty rare !

But with increasing screen resolution and size, and adoption of 16/10 or 16/9
format, a modern software should be split and handle multiple document in a fast
and easy way.
To me priority of the 3 features are
1st: window splitting for single doc
2nd window splitting for to docs
3rd tabbed window

Firefox which is used for reading had implemented tabs at first and secondly a
add-on had allowed to split the window to compare two docs.

For OOo Writer it should be inverse as it is used to write ! You should be able
to read right and write left. At first you'd have to be able to work with two
docs or a long doc in one unique splitted windows. Secondly, cosmetics could be
increased using tabs to avoid using windows manager of the task bar.

Nevertheless, each doc should be opened either in a split windows, a tab or a
new windows. Using OOo in Ubuntu nead this, because, as you can use multiple
virtual desktop (compiz cube) and start a new work on a new virtual desktop,
forcing tabbs isn't a good choice. You should be able to open a new windows if
needed.
