+(1) The Tab Manager
+
+The GUI is centralised around an always-present Tab Manager. It keeps track of what timelines, what posts, and what reply sessions, are open.
+
+There is a singular timeline window, post window, and reply window. They are highly integrated with the tab manager, displaying what it says is selected.
+
+The windows get their domain object from the tab manager, and handle rendering it into their content pane.
+
+Everyone has a mix of forwarding actions, and abstract actions.
+
+
+(2) The Windows
+
+This classical design is centralised on no one. It has the application close when all windows are closed. Regular windows are spawned by actions, and special windows can be opened by menu.
+
+The hidden application instance provides window management services and access to the data interchange. But all windows store and manage their domain objects by themselves.
+
+Windows will probably be local controllers, while their content panes are controlled components.
