After I deleted .leo\db folder, VR3 finally opened in an internal frame. Opening a floating VR3 window from the splitter context menu opened a second, floating window while leaving the previously opened internal pane alone. I found I had to delete both databases in the db folder to get this to work reliably.
I'm speculating that I had some layout data left over from using --use-docks that was getting reused, but who really knows? All these instances were still specific to the selected Leo outline. I'm finding that I don't mind that so much for the internal pane. I can have an open VR3 in several outlines, and when I select an outline, its instance of VR3 shows rendering for that pane. So that's not really confusing or annoying, unlike having to have multiple free-floating windows open at the same time for the several outlines, which *is* annoying.
