Unhilite all tabs in a tabbed button

Greg,

This is really counter to the UI of a tab button, which indicates that at
least one tab is selected. It would be like having three radio buttons, none
of which are hilited. If you need something like this, you should make the
tab control itself completely disabled and subject to a control (a checkbox
for example) that would alter the disabled state of the tab control. That
is, if everything in the tab control does not apply, it would be disabled.
If something in the tab control *could* apply, it is enabled with one of the
tabs selected.
