You don't need to be a fragment to participate in the action bar tabs, they just let you do that as a convenience. They are just calling back to you when the tabs are changed. They make it easy to at that point switch fragments, but you can just as well switch views.
I'd prefer to not start introducing dependencies on fragments for doing basic UI stuff. The app package has always been layered on top of view and widget, and that is a good thing.
