It opens the *same* message several times. I do not think that too many
people want to read the same message something like 30 times from 30
different windows. Most people probably do not even want 30 windows to
be opened at once.

It may be, to some degree, expected from the programmer's side, but I
still think it's a misbehaviour. In my opinion something like

if( number of windows to be opened > 5 )
   alert("You really want to open > 5 windows?")

would help.

A+
