Microsoft's recommendations on the UI of programs are only recommendations. If the task requires it, two windows are fine. This is what you would have if you previewed in Acrobat Reader anyway -- two apps but also two windows.

It's been a while, but my memory is that many of Adobe's apps, such as PhotoShop, have multiple windows, especially if you detach the palettes. If you recommend Unicode editors in xlshort, I think TeXWorks should be included.

TeXworks is decent, but violates the windows user experience of one window per application. It spawns two separate windows and that breaks the magic right there. On MacOS and *nix that's actually fine, but on windows if it's not all contained, it's a bad program.
