Hi, Ali,

It turns out that the GTK Notebook has its own built-in mechanism 
for tracking tabs. Two things got me going down the wrong road on 
this:

1) the fact that Notebook.appendPage() returns an ever-increasing 
index each time a page is added, and
2) trying to quit caffeine.

I chased my tail for a full week (seriously: a full week!) trying 
to come up with a way to track tabs. Then I got tired of doing 
face-plants on my desk, took up coffee again, and solved it in 
three hours.

The moral of the story is: don't quit coffee until you have 
nothing left to contribute to this world. :)
