SUMMARY
When multiple instances of okular are open with the same document, okular should remember the different configurations for each instance of the document. For instance, I had okular open to homework problems and was reviewing questions with another window on the answer key page. After restarting the computer, when okular was resumed, it opened 2 instances of the same document scrolled to the same spot instead of one instance having the questions and one having the key.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a document with multiple pages
2. open it again in another instance
3. scroll to a different page in the other instance
4. With Restore last session enabled in system settings, logoff/restart
5. Sign back in and observe okular's windows

OBSERVED RESULT
Same document opened twice, scrolled to same pages

EXPECTED RESULT
Same document opened twice, scrolled to their correct pages
