Make the dummy page the one and only page for unpaged tab controls, 
usable as the client area of the TTabControl.

I still don't understand the need and purpose of all that.

When it's about the event handler types:

IMO it was a bad decision to rename the base class into 
TCustomTabControl, when it effectively is the base class of 
TPageControl. Revert it to TCustomNotebook, or name it 
TCustomPageControl, so that a TCustomTabControl can be derived from that 
base class.
