[Plugin: Editor Tabs] Major improvement possible

Hi,
while I was looking for a plugin so as to easy the way my students write posts, I came along your plugin. Editor-tabs.
Reading the comments in the forum I found that there was a conflict when using it with the Adminimize plugin (which I already use and works flawlessly). I contacted its author trying to find solutions for it, but I think the Editor-tabs “problem” could be deeper than just a conflict.
Even without the Adminimize plugin, Editor-tabs seems to be doing things on its own. I don’t think it works well with the screen options of WordPress itself.

You see, although certain fields are disabled (through the screen options) from showing up on the screen they STILL do.
I take it that for Editor-tabs to be a really useful plugin, it should disable the corresponding tabs once these are unchecked on the screen options. Otherwise it just defies the whole purpose of using it(???).
I am not a php savy, but I think that this would probably solve the problems with Adminimize as well.
I think that the purpose of such a plugin could be the improvement of the functionality of wordpress itself as well as “a better looking by tabs edit screen”.
That would make it an awesome CMS plugin.

Can you please look into it?
Thank you in advance.
PS: A changelog would also be very useful and reassuring.
