The pop-up, as you describe it, does allow you to continue working on
your presumably unsaved document, and you can easily quit one of the
other instances of BBEdit in the meantime. You're losing nothing
except an instance of BBEdit running on a machine you're not even
using, if I understand you correctly.

the License seems to be in the manual, and IIRC the manual is in
the demo download so I'm afraid this doesn't stand up very well to
scrutiny. Where do you suggest they 'hide it'? (I find this
phrasing pretty inflammatory, it's hardly neutral.) Where would
you *expect* to find such information?
So you can download the demo, read the manual, find the Licence
Agreement. I can't think of a simpler way.
How about when you buy the thing, instead of saying you're buying a
"single user license," say "two machine license." It's even the
same number of characters!
And why should this rather than anything else get special
attention, in the user's face? Personally if some dialog popped up
clarifying this fairly predictable bit of information while I was
purchasing, I would find it irritating.
As opposed to popping up repeatedly when you're actually trying to
use the product, thereby preventing you from doing so?
