I patched my local version this way. I saw that tabs are integrated, only 
tab-labels are missing. The tabs can easily activated by
$TCA['pages']['ctrl']['dividers2tabs'] = TRUE;

To create a patch, i want ask what should happen with doktype 2 (advanced). 
To be compatible it has to be there, but showing advanced page with same 
options than normal page looks bit strange. Any suggestions?
