Reasonable.

The embed_widget method in viewrendered.py does this for the rendering
pane.  I forget the details, but presumably it would be possible to
have more than one rendering pane by creating multiple instances of
ViewRenderedController.  Some work would have to be done...

Reasonable.  Partially available now with the lock/unlock commands.

Sure.  There is no end to improvements :-)

The bottom line: allowing multiple additional panes, either in a
tabbed widget or not, makes sense.  I don't want to do anything about
these possibilities until I finish bugs, the present viewrendered
widget and autocompletion.
