Personally I really, really didn't get on with Opera's tab'ed window
scheme, and the only reason I continued my evaluation of Opera beyond
the first few minutes was that it offered the alternative option of a
separate window for each session.

Similarly with MS Word: I much prefer the newer versions of MS Word
that don't have that horrible MDI thing.

I'm not quite sure why multiple windows works better for me; I expect
many of these things are personal preferences.

If The Bat! ever does move to a more MDI type interface, I hope that
an option is retained to keep things the way they are now. Perhaps
your example of Opera is the best way forward: Opera provides both
options.

Can we change that to "At least one window per program, please"?
