Two identical program windows in parallel

[ams]

Some time ago here in the forum a user wrote that he could open the same program window (same source object) two times in parallel, but could not reproduce. PL/SQL should avoid this, you answered. (Sorry, but I cannot find the post again.)
But today I had had the same effect and invested some time to find out when it happend. Believe it or not, I can reproduce it when waiting long enough ! PL/SQL "forgets", that the object is already open !

Steps:
Edit a package (Edit Spec & Body)
Minimize the Window (Don't know if necessary)
Wait 10 Minutes
Edit Spec & Body OF THE SAME PACKAGE
Nothing happens, because it's already open
Wait another 5 minutes
Edit Spec & Body OF THE SAME PACKAGE
The program editor opens

In the lower left corner u can see two identical window entries and you can edit the same object two times and compile one after another (and loose changes you made in the first compiled window )

It sounds mad for me ! Can someone reproduce it ?

Thanks in advance

I will give it a try and will let you know...

It is true!
I can do the same also (after a few minutes)!

I have also noticed this behavior, but have not explored it as the others have

We'll try to fix this.

Ok, I realize that this is not a property of PLSqlDev, but just side effect. IMHO such a functionality may be quite fine.

This is a little bit different exemple and don't concern exactly the same package/proc.
I mean, that sometimes there's a need to open the same package from two different dbs/schemas. And for now it's impossible, (ie to fast copy some diferences beetween this packages).

Maybe there should be some db/schema prefix or something like that?
