How would one provide an option that allows users to reorder the MDI tabs for all open documents. I would image you need to change the z-order of the windows with the SetWindowPos API. Would the tab control update to reflect the changed z-order? Is there a better method for accomplishing this? I’d like to see a drop and drop interface added to the tab control that allows the user to reorder tabs graphically (simliar to Avant and Maxthon browsers).

The CExtTabMdiWnd class hooks the MDI client window, main and active child frame windows to synchronize tab items with a set of MDI child frames. This control is based on WM_MDI*** messages. So, just to change the window order is not enough to automatically update tab windows. Besides, the tab window does not provide a ready-to-use drag-and-drop mechanism. It just provides virtual methods for implementing drag-and-drop in user-defined tab windows.
We could treat your task as a feature request for the future or as a custom development issue.
