--- Comment #32 from Eyal Rozenberg <eyalr...@gmx.com> ---
Splitting the window is much superior to using two windows. The latter option:

* Results in a lot of "dead" vertical space - a duplication of the window title
and frame, the menu bar, tool bar, ruler and status bar. This is particularly
problematic on low-resolution / high-aspect-ration monitors.
* Requires a lot more user manipulation: Unmaximizing windows, sizing them,
moving them to precise positions; then maximizing or resizing after the use of
the second copy is done
* Does not share the same sidebar between the two views of the document, so
clicks on one window have to be replicated in the other.

So, this should really happen.

Also, shortening the title somewhat, feel free to edit again if necessary.
