Back to SynEdit. There is a decision on functional issues.
Currently if you have 2 Editors in 2 windows, editing one file, then they are truly 2 editors. 2 - 2 carets (if the OS supports (GTK), and the option "Persistent caret" is set. Each has it's location, and each shows that location in the statusbar.
- 2 selections, and tey can be in different places
- 2 syncro edits
...

IMHO that is not what one expects from a split view. It should be one of each (one editor). - Except for each split it will remember (but not show, unless active) the caret pos. - But for example it is one selection. Changing the selection affects all splits (as they are views on the same editor).

Also 2 editors, means 2 overview gutters
