Many as in you? I would be open to a suggestion from you that actually
addresses the point instead of assuming a negative and contrarian point of view
when you have a multitude of people pushing this.

And that's why we are discussing here to change this. That is not user
friendly. If an user selects the Tabbed UI once, he will assume that the choice
will be for all modules. So I would say that the behaviour you describe should
change to avoid the frustration of an user having to repeat the same action to
select his preferred UI every time he opens a new module.
