Yes, that's it. The first beta will not have support for search&replace across files, but the final version will.
This tabbed-based approach is better than the single-flow one. When you edit the book, you move from chapter to chapter. Here you'll just move from tab to tab. Also, in a single flow system, if you're looking at chapter 19 and want to edit something in chapter 8, you have to lose your current place, scroll up, find chapter 8, do what you want, then find chapter 19 again.
With tabs, this is all much quicker since each chapter is a separate tab. And if you need to perform some operations on all files, well then you just use S&R and select "Search/replace in all files" (or whatever I end up calling that).
In this new model, you don't lose anything except the slowness and the bugs that come with the single-flow approach.
