I would have to patch the XUI to undo that... again... if that was done.

I already patch the XUI every time I install SL to get the contacts  
tabs on the bottom, as in http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-1549.  
I still don't understand why they rejected that one, it's just nested  
tabs and not confusing at all.

I also make them tear off. That works well _for me_ but without  
matching code changes I have to be careful what order I open windows  
in, because it's possible to get SL confused and try and render into  
a non-existent window, which crashes it.
