Well, I'm not particularly concerned about that...

When you call 'attach_control' in Autosize, it will (in the new
version, at least) resize itself relative to it's parent - listening
for when the parent changes size. So I'm talking about the items
inside the TabItem, not the TabItem itself.

The problem is that the TabItem doesn't receive any w32HResize events,
even though visually you could say it changes size. Would you consider
triggering resize events in a TabItem when the parent TabControl is
resized?
