The tabula command does that, but without syntax highlighting etc.  I
think the first step on having more flexible multiple editors is
getting the leo text editing widget to behave well as a simple stick it
anywhere kind of QWidget.

For a tabbed editor like thing, I have the key binding
'quickmove_jump_to = Ctrl-B' so Ctrl-B adds a 'jump to' button for the
current node.  I find that works well even without persistence because
the set of nodes for which I want 'tabs' evolves over time.
