That's true, the "only one auto-dj feature open" restriction would have to be removed, but this is something that should be done anyway. It is also true that the tab model is very difficult to manage with a controller. So what about the simpler model nº 2) i proposed: 2. Right panes can be blocked (or pinned).

It is simpler so it should be easier to map to controllers. What do you think? A solution would be to remove all the focus issues and introduce > independent selectors for each pane.

It is a promising idea.

Maybe the simplest model. I also like this. By the way, we have discussed the same as "sticky views" which have now > become the saved searches.

Here we re talking about features, not search queries.
