Description Jan Zajicek 2001-12-14 14:36:04 UTC 
Frequently I like to open a source file in a separate view, rather than docked
windows (panes), so that I can see files side-by-side. Now I have open the
source file and then "clone view". It would be nice if, when I right click on a
source file in the explorer, there was an "open in new view" menu option.

Not an easy task. Might be simulated by action that reacts to
EditorCookie, get the opened panes, finds a TopComponents for them and
if one of them implements TopComponent.Cloneable calls the method.

Solves your problem but is not too nice.
