However, it's not clear how to combine header lines from different modes
for the same buffer (e.g. Info, ruler, and tabbar) - whether to put them
on separate lines in one buffer displayed in one header window, or to display
them in separate windows and buffers, i.e. one extra buffer/window for every
mode - one header buffer/window for the ruler, one for the tabbar, etc.

I think you design of using window parameters is clean and flexible.
