When you detach the commandLine from the toolbar, and dock it underneath the outliner (as an example), it displays with a tab like default WorkspaceControl behavior. So that's consistent with what I'm getting. The difference is, as you mention, the lack of tabs when docket to a toolbar specifically. It also provides the dotted left-edge, which allows you to grab and detach the toolbar to be docket elsewhere. These do not show when docked outside a toolbar.
I played around with the workspaceControl attributes, but nothing made any change to this behavior. So I assume these toolbars are built in a different way, other than being wrapped in a workspaceController. I will investigate the QDockWidget!
