[dev jul 3] The project tab is not removed when you uninstall the projects module within an IDE session. Nor is the Workspace tab added. In fact after closing the project tab manually and pressing Ctrl-2 (View Explorer) after this point, the project tab is opened again.

Moved to projects.
The projects tab displays Workplace node after the projects module is uninstalled. Actually the core's implmementation of ProjectCookie is correctly restored now when the module is disabled.
Project tab is now removed after module is uninstalled. There is no Workplace tab. Is it what you mean by last comment?
Yes, project tab is removed, there are other indications too, e.g.: - Tools/Options contains only two columns (user and default) - Main window caption doesn't contain name of the project, but 'Workplace' - View | Explorer revokes the Workplace tab (which is core's simple project implementation)
Shouldn't the Workplace tab be re-added if the projects module is uninstalled? Not terribly important but correct I think, since it is there if you have no projects module. Does it work now?
No, project tab is removed after projects uninstallation and workplace tab can be displayed by View | Explorer menu item. I don't have strong feeling on this behavior, as I remember QA wants the tab to be removed, but personally I like your suggestion better. Please, file bug for dsimonek or mslama if you think they should handle it differently. Originally, there was another problem in projects module which caused the last opened project to hang after the projects module has been uninstalled. You have had to restart IDE in order to get core's project impl in. That is what the issue actually complained of and what is already fixed.
"project tab is removed after projects uninstallation and workplace tab can be displayed by View | Explorer menu item" - close enough, should be rare anyway.
Verified.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
