Ion (from the same authors as pwm) does tabs.  It also has incredibly
bad default keybindings.  You may find its automatic tiling a bit odd
at first, but for most of things that I use (xterms, Open Office, web
browsing) it makes life a lot easier - your window manager does all of
the work in positioning windows for you.  Ion also has a pwm-like
mode, and is very flexible in the ways that you can combine pwm-like
desktops with ion-like ones.

Real purists will shun ion and use ratpoison instead :-)
