No, nobody's working on it. One thing, though, is naming. We don't
follow the wxWidgets use of the term 'notebook' for a tabbed panel.
I've used several UI toolkits, and they usually have 'tab' or 'page'
in the name, but never 'notebook'. Rather than adopt what appears to
be a wxWidgets-only name, we went with the more neutral 'page' as the
basis for these paged controls. We have dPageFrame, dPageList,
dPageSelect, and dPageFrameNoTabs. At the time we adopted this, there
was only dPageFrame, but looking back I wish we had named it
dPageTabs, since that would follow the dPage<selector> convention of
the others.
The choice here is whether to make the wrapped FlatNotebook into a
completely independent control, or whether to use dPageFrameMixin as
the basis for it, or whether to integrate it into dPageFrame somehow
so that you can get the FlatNotebook behaviors as an option.
