assigning to simon. this is an instance of a basic design problem that simon has been trying to resolve. we currently don't have any way to instantiate multiple editor app cores in a rational way. Right now, when you bring up the second editor window, it's really just a browser window because we haven't attached the editor to it. I don't think we can push this into M5, so I've set the milestone for M6. I have bumped up both the priority and the severity. This is a critical issue for "ender-as-text-widget", so please document whatever decisions are made on the newsgroups!
Opening two windows of anything is currently broken. Try it in the browser!
