For a docking UI, you normally need at least one top-level window
which cannot itself be docked. Children can either be docked into this
window or undocked as separate top-level windows. If you undock
everything, you end up with an empty[1] main window whose only purpose
is to sit around in case you want to re-dock the children.
[1] Or almost empty. There may be some components which can't be
undocked, e.g. the menu bar.
