Interesting ideas. I've been thinking along really similar lines. Good point about how a large number of tabs on the screen can be distracting. One of my friends actually moved his tab bar to the bottom of the screen, and he said that he finds it much less distracting. It's there if you need it, but stays out of your way when you don't.
