I got stuck because the the AuiNotebook doesn't allow the programmer
to get to the tab containers. The alternative route, via the
AuiManager, doesn't work either: it is possible to get at the panes
via AuiManager.GetAllPanes() but the window property of the returned
PaneInfo objects is always of type wx.Window instead of AuiTabCtrl
(making it impossible to get to the individual tabs via the Panes). I
think that in C++ you can cast the wx.Window instance to a AuiTabCtrl
but in Python that doesn't work afaik.

Cheers, Frank
