Hi Tim,

Thanks, I wasn't looking in the right place, I saw the NewTabsDelegate
before but didn't fully understood how it was all integrated.

So the MainView has a Header component, and the Tabs component provides a
specialized delegate (NewTabsDelegate) for the Header contents.

I'll look some more into this and try to use this to theme the Facebook app
!

Cheers,
Hugo.
