Screenshot of a disabled feature MainWindowPrivate::newWindow()

I stumbled upon a never-called function MainWindowPrivate::newWindow() in
https://commits.kde.org/kdevelop?path=kdevplatform/shell/mainwindow_actions.cpp
. Its only use was commented out in
https://commits.kde.org/kdevelop/c4e3e763e9ca779eae0605e3f4e203cd9d51b1be and
removed in
https://commits.kde.org/kdevelop/0b5aab35b7d1e8904442399a08270b81e066777e .
Just tested and it works (see the attached screenshot). I am sure the feature
has bugs, but bug fixes should be much easier to implement and review compared
to a new feature, because they can be gradual.

I am currently fixing KDevelop MainWindow save/load bugs. Was going to remove
this unused function along with the UiController::NewWindow mode needed only by
this function. But then decided to test it (by inserting `newWindow();return;`
at the beginning of MainWindowPrivate::reloadAll()) and remembered this bug
report. I'll keep this disabled feature in case you decide to try out and
possibly enable/fix/improve it.
