Should we add one? Is it necessary? At the moment, the only values for
filetype None are the fore- and background colour which are by default
black and white(and in the last SVN version the other way around if
invert_all is set). But we can also add the file filetype.none with
just the one line to change the fore- and background colours.

I really don't like it. Yesterday, Tim Tassonis mentioned "We don't
want another emacs, do we?" ;-).

Well, I'm not completely against the split-window feature but I don't
see a reasonably way to implement it beside the current way of tab
positioning(read: the notebook tabs).
