[PD] Reasoning behind PD opening multiple copies of the same patch

[Joe White]

Hi,

 I'm just wondering if there is reason behind PD opening another instance of
an already running patch instead of just pointing to it (on OSX anyway).

To me there are a few undesirable consequences such as problems when
editing, duplicates of global sends/tables and sometimes not knowing you
have two open.

Maybe I'm missing something?

Cheers,
Joe
