Agreed, its bitten me a lot of times opening a ton of extra browser windows for the same session
However alternatively, its actually a surprisingly useful feature, I often want to for example, open a route on my map, then not touch that but also have a zoomed in version for actual navigation. I would love for us to have these use cases and behaviours matched across apps and homescreen bookmarks, one suggestion would be homescreen bookmark + apps both launch existing instances as long as they are within the same origin, and long click on either provides the ability to open a new instance (this can only work in the rocketbar since we use longpress for reorder on the homescreen) Some consistent behaviour would be very nice though On 22 October 2014 02:44, Thinker K.F.
