If the interaction was the one you described, yes I would expect a new window.
But in my use case I have a window and some buffers loaded and I switch between
them in whatever way I find faster at that moment, i.e. :bn :bp
etc.... so I would expect,
since it's the same window, for it to keep the same status for the
buffers that it already displayed.
