IMHO the first one is much better. from a technical standpoint, it is much easier to code. from a usability standpoint, having the tabs in between better reflects what we see in other applications (inc outside of kde) so gets points for user familiarity but also strengthens the relationship between "these are the actions for this specific tab" and "these are generic actions application to any tab". right now we have the problem of "window global" versus "kpart specific" actions not being clearly differentiated, which having the tabs between the toolbars sorts out very nicely. the second option does show the relationship between the tab and the location bar (and other actions) clearly but feels wrong visually for some reason (ok, that's pretty vague =). i'd also note that it doesn't solve the problem -at all- for the case when the window is split into one or more panes. and that's a challenge with split panes. it would almost make sense to put the location path right inside the content window itself. *shrug* -- Aaron J.
