Not knowing exactly what you were trying to achieve, I did put forth two propositions. Only one of which suggested that, from a technical/programmatical standpoint, there was little difference between that and asking for Book View back. Now that I understand what you were trying to accomplish, I'm happy that it was my former supposition rather than the latter.

I never once thought (or hinted) that your suggestions were made based on a desire to to be able to edit in Book view, or that you were overtly asking for Book View to brought back at all. My point (as I already alluded to above) was that IF what you were asking for was the ability to have Preview tabbed within Code View's various epub resource tabs, then there was no difference-programmatically--between that and asking for Book View to be brought back. Much of the same work would be involved.

I'm quite giddy that you've found a way to almost entirely hide the Code View widget behind a giant Preview widget, and that you can essentially toggle between Code View/Preview with the click of a mouse. I don't know how I ever made the mistake of thinking you were looking to revert to some of the previous functionality provided by the old Code View/Book View central widget toggling methodology.
