Hi Christoph, Hi Jakob,

Okay, no biggie, I don't have strong feelings on this one, but what I
noticed, without this fix, setting Reuse Windows enabled or disabled, has
no effect on the Test Runner.  Even though we know why, to the casual
observer, it appears to be a "bug" and, from the sense that SUnit browser
WAS developed as a "global" singleton browser, it is.

> This commit makes it impossible to have multiple TestRunners opened side
by side. For me, this is clearly a drawback.  Why force unnecessary
singletons?

Heh, nothing is forced.  You can use the green halo or turn off the
preference.  Do you use the preference?  I thought I was the only one.  :)

There's no way, through normal IDE intreactions currently, to open it with
a pre-selection.  If we can make SUnit browser do that in next release,
then Reuse Windows will have something to select off of.  As of now, it
doesn't in normal IDE usage.

Reuse Windows depends on the pre-selection, but if a certain model *can't*,
the idea is that Reuse Windows should at least do *something* for this
browser..

Sure.  I do it all the time.  Green halo.

Green halo has many uses...  :)

Best,
