Thanks for sharing the plans for electron. In my feature suggestion for a new window, I am not referring to a new window using electron, but instead I meant a new window in the existing web browser.
I am unfamiliar with the effort needed for electron integration. But I suspect that opening a new window in an existing web browser should be much more easily achievable.

I would like to invite other python/electron developers to help us evolving the project in correct direction. -- Thanks, Ashesh > > > As an aside, is there a generic command that does the default browser in a > new window?
