You say here that the natural human behaviour would be to expect the 
close-opens-new solution. That's just a wee bit too much generalizing to 
me. ;)

I agree we should give the user what she expects. But we need to find 
out *what*.

How about this: can't we look at a bunch of other SDI/MSDI text-editor 
programs on MacOS, Windows and Linux and then find the commond 
denominator?

Consistency, particularly with other apps of the same category, is 
*always* good. If we want consistency, we need to find out the other's 
behaviours.
