It's been a while, but I remember being very surprised that something I
did in one Rosegarden was reflected in the other instance. I think I
started playing an empty composition and heard the other Rosegarden play.
Maybe it was some other action. It definitely surprised me.
It had nothing to do with confusing JACK - IIRC, JACK actually took all
that without a problem.

I must have explained it badly. Perhaps in the context, it sounded like
two simultaneous instances of Rosegarden, which is not what I meant. It's
one Rosegarden, two sequential edits.
* First edit the first composition, the one you're going to copy from
* Copy to clipboard.
* Load the second composition, which removes the first one.
* Paste from the clipboard. It still has the selection from the first
composition.
An unintentional feature, but a nice one.
I do this from time to time. It works, though obviously it's inconvenient
if you want to copy more than one thing.
