[Lazarus] Why MDI for Qt only

I dare the "world" to make a SDI (as in non-Window-in-Window, because using 
tabs is also considered MDI these days) image editing/drawing program that 
doesn't have a UI that suck :-P. When you need to have two or more documents 
open side by side, or maximize your document to take the whole screen except 
the tools and menu, you don't want your taskbar cluttered with all open 
documents, then MDI is really the solution, not matter how "old" it is.

Also i like mIRC's MDI interface because i can have multiple channels on 
screen at the same time (in contrast to the tabbed approach most IRC clients 
use these days which require you to switch tabs). Yes its a matter of taste, 
but i don't consider it a good idea to remove stuff because some people 
dislike them (generic note, it doesn't apply here, MDI isn't implemented in 
Lazarus yet).
