The hierarchy tree viewer is (naturally) a non-document window. And because of this limitation (which is enforced in Eclipse), I need to endlessly flip back and forth if I want to analyse more classes. I do not say it is not workable, but it is definitely not pleasant. I can imagine there are more use cases, which are not on the official list - especially for apps designed on top of NB IDE / NB platform - which need to show several instances of a view type even more than in my example.
