Yes.  Tabs are only useful for one level of information.  We have several
(eg messages within a folder within SMS).  I could even imagine doing
things like making Outlook and its folders part of the tree so you
can just drag and drop Outlook entries around.

What I would like first however is to mock this up a little more
first and maybe get a professional user interaction designer to
mull it over since they may be able to come up with something even
better.

Tree displays make sense to the logical organised mind of a programmer
but aren't necessarily the most usable thing for a user.
