Yes, I guess. What I meant was a stack that is fundamentally the same
structure but with different content (think Microsoft Word or a painting
program that lets you open multiple canvasses). In this case, I'd open
the "original" invisibly, clone it, and close the original. Then the
user can work in the cloned window and it will dispose of itself
automatically when closed.
