I'm not a GUI guy, but it seems to me if you can have multiple GUIs, but the overall system can only be in one mode at a time, the individual GUIs should NOT be keeping track of the mode.
The central controller (task, I think) should know what the current mode is. An individual GUI can request a mode change, but the actual change should take place in task. Every GUI should get the current mode from task and do the right thing (such as flipping tabs).
