I still think Lazarus IDE (not LCL), must have it's own custom drawn
PageControl. Delphi, Eclipse, Visual Studio all do this. That way the
IDE can have close buttons for all platforms, right|left|top|bottom
tab positions etc...

The IDE is not a general purpose "desktop application", it is a
specialize tool for software development, so it doesn't need to adhere
to platform look & feel like all other [desktop] apps.
