The single worst thing about the many windows IDE is this: I am coding, I need to look something up, I'm on my laptop so there isn't another screen, I open a browser. I want to go back to my code when I'm done - I have to click 8 or 10 things in the taskbar to get all the windows to the front. Usually you can get away with just minimizing the other program - but when there are 3 or 4... It is SO bad that I have gotten in the habit of using a dedicated virtual desktop just for Lazarus. I would definitely be in favor of a single window design.
