A group renowned for listening to what their users want!

Actually, MDI vs SDI is in some ways incorrect terminology in that it
somewhat implies a "window" per "document".  Whereas some of this
about having 8 different "windows" that all refer to different aspects
of the same thing.  Then I want that greater flexibility to create my
own layouts to suit my own workflow - some separate, some attached.  I
generally find I always want the in-between - eg. both of GIMPs
windowing modes annoy me!

Best wishes,

Neil
