Here at Ximian we have been brainstorming a bit about what happens
next in the Evolution world. One of the ideas that has come up is a
substantial overhaul of Evolution's UI.

Since images speak better than words, here are the mockups for some
designs that Anna has developed: (this is just to give a very rough
idea of what it would be like; the icons and labels are not final, the
widgets are not the real ones etc.)

I forgot to mention that tabs lead to a whole host of posibilities including:

* Custom tabs - User can create new tabs for access to frequently used views (replaces the shortcuts)

*Tabs can be renamed - Allows user to specify a name that is more meaningful to them

* Tabs can be dragged - If Anjuta2 style containers are used tags can be dragged to be reordered or even dragged off the shell into it's own application window.
