I think we need to generalize this idea to all the subtabs.  One approach that I was playing with uses a setting that is a pointer card, and it uses the tagname or each pointer for the 'name' of the subtab, and the contents as a template.  That way one setting controlls the whole tab. -- Gerry Gleason

The only other tab that has subtabs is Edit (well, and Options, but that's going away). You want to make the subtabs under Edit customizable?

Ah, I'm guessing you just mean the tabs altogether? We talked about doing that when we made the Related subtabs customizable but didn't ticket it. Lots to work out to do that, but, something like reimplement tabs as cards. Whether or not we do this for View, Changes, etc. it would definitely be nice to let people Wagneer tabbed interfaces on included cards (overriding the default set of tabs, whether they are hard-coded or Wagneered).

Right, I mean something more inclusive like that. Consistent with "everything is a card" and actually adding a new tab was part of an extension I wrote pre-API and I want to have a more consistent way to add it.

I guess another way of looking at this is that "related" should be added using an API feature that others can use to add their own tabs.  Refactoring the base set of tabs (besides related) could be done later if at all.

closing because this is gone, though making menus wagneerable is still a central issue.
