Hi Juan, You are right. :) I have not noticed that org-tree-to-indirect-buffer reuses the indirect buffer when you call it for a second time. According to the manual, "with a C-u prefix, do not remove the previously used indirect buffer", but that does not seem to work. When you do Cu-Cc-Cx-b from a buffer that already has an indirect buffer you get a "cannot modify an area being edited in a dedicated buffer". If you try it from a different buffer, the prefix is ignored and the indirect buffer is assigned to the tree from the last buffer.
This does not seem to be a limitation from emacs, as it is possible to open multiple indirect buffers from a base buffer, using for example clone-indirect-buffer. So it should be possible to make a function combining "clone-indirect-buffer" and "org-narrow-to-subtree" perhaps? I am thinking so this option is available not only to EXWM users. Ideally, there should be an option to allow org-tree-to-indirect-buffer to create more than one indirect buffer if desired.
