You mean like tear off a tab and make it a new application window (e.g. before there was only one gvim window and afterwards you have 2 windows as seen from the operating system)? That is not currently possible. However it should be possible to script a plugin, that calls v:progpath with the current window and restores the view using :mkview and :loadview.
