FWIW this is most annoying in Eclipse when I need to inspect type 
hierarchy for some class. 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.
