If I could tear off & merge tabs it would easily allow

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)?

Perhaps, though like w/firefox, I can send a tab or drag a tab to another
window -- and it is still only 1 application (who knows how many
threads, though)...
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. However I don't know, if something like this exists

   I'm not sure you are understanding that I really only want there
to be 1 application controlling both windows. In the same way as when I split a window, if I change
something in 1 split, I can see the edits in another split.

   In this case, I'm just wanting a it to bring up a new
window.  Sorta like in explorer, if I want I can right click
on a folder and say "open folder in new window".  It's still
only 1 copy of explorer, but I can have it open multiple windows
on different folders -- if I change something in one of those
windows, I see the change reflected in other windows (usually,
it's a MS-product).  ;-)
