I've thought about this before, but not investigated it in detail. I  
think the feature would be very useful, and there may be a way of  
implementing it so it doesn't complicate the interface too much.

Scintilla has support for multiple views of a document, so perhaps  
there could be an optional pane next to the notebook window, with  
something like a right click menu to select which document to view in  
the extra pane.

But this is still just an idea, I'm not certain about it, and for me  
there are other things that take priority.
