How to implement multi-windowed layout (like the default browser) (Editor with several open files)

Viewed 579

I am writing an editor (of sorts) which I want to be able to have multiple windows open at the same time, and I want to be able to navigate between windows as can be done in the default browser (Internet) application. See picture: http://i.imgur.com/LM6Nz.png for clarification.

My question is how to implement these windows; Do I want each window to be an own (Editor) Activity, should I use Fragments (I am mainly designing for API 10, and Fragments arrived in API 11, but I read somewhere this should be fine). Or do I simply hack together some different Views in a ViewGroup?

If I use Fragments, do I place them in a ViewGroup?
