Taskbar needs improvements. And maybe special tabs support will not needed.

My idea is grouping items opened from first tool (browser) opened from world
wenu (or pragrammatically). So taskbar will show this groups.
When user click on group last used tool from this group will show. And
another taskbar row will show all group contents (like usual taskbar). So
this extra "tool taskbar" will be like tabs for first activation tool.
And this new "tool taskbar" can be shown on top of screen while base taskbar
on bottom. Or this tool taskbar can opened in new special row on activated
window from target group.

With this behavior developer could never think about implementing tabbed
view of application contents. It will just default behavior of
windows/taskbar manager.
