When you already have four Vims open you currently get four menu entries to select which one to edit the file in. If we allow the choice for using a new tab or not you would get eight entries. Not attractive. It's probably better to always use a new tab. Or perhaps use a new tab when the currently edited file was modified. The behavior for dropping the files on a running Vim will be the same, the same Windows message is used.
