--- Comment #3 from Gerhard Weydt <gerhard.weydt at t-online.de> ---
The problem described only arises when using an embedded database (HSQLDB,
Firebird). The database is unpacked when the document is opened, the data
reside in the local storage, where all changes are stored immediately. But they
are only saved permanently when the document is closed or saved, by zipping the
database. (It's not a question of "opening the main window", this must be open,
because otherwise no forms ... can be open.) So there's no need to do anything
in addition. The only possible problem is a crash before the document is
saved/closed, then the changes are lost.
But tabs instead of separate windows would change nothing at this situation.
By the way: forms and reports are sort of separate Writer documents, I think it
would be a difficult task, requiring crucial changes in the user interface, to
present them in tabs.
