I think it would be handier to simply shift-double click on a drawer icon/directory to open in in a new window (when the prefs are set to use always the same window), instead of having to pick up the respective menu command for that everytime. Of course this behaviour could be made as an option, if somebody really doesn't like it... or let the user choose the qualifier other than shift that he /she prefers.
Please ignore this feature request, I just discovered it was a hidden feature. Still to figure out how to delete or change tickets though, damn...
