Description Philipp Verpoort 2020-04-02 16:13:56 UTC
It should be made possible for Kile to have several sessions open across different Windows. It's not uncommon for users (or for me at least) to be working on two different projects or files in parallel. Often this happens on different workspaces/desktops or perhaps even in different KDE activities.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a file or project in Kile on one desktop.
2. Open a file or project in Kile on another desktop.

OBSERVED RESULT
Both files are opened in the same window on the first desktop.

EXPECTED RESULT
A new window opens, allowing me to work on this file separately in a different Kile session (including its own live preview etc). Much like how Kate works for example.
