<p>I should also add that this feature is helpful enough in environments where the user is unable to open multiple files recursively by himself, like there are no commands usable for it, or when simply the user doesn't know how to do it.</p>

<p>Hmm. I guess that's one correct way to do it if we want to open multiple files by the command-line.  But I guess that also proves that it's possible to sanely have multiple instances?</p>
