Please allow for tiling across multiple windows/frames in IDEA - for use with multiple monitors

Environment: I am currently using Windows XP Professional, with dual 19" monitors on a Dell Latitude D810.

Build: 7,757


 Description  « Hide
I as I discussed with several of the JetBrains guys last week at JavaOne, I think it would be useful if IntelliJ IDEA were able to create multiple frames which you could move to different monitors when using a multiple monitor setup.

Sure, you can get IDEA to span multiple windows (depending on utilities used), but then you have to tile horizontally, and hope you can move the divider correctly. Then, when you minimize, IDEA tends to shrink back to a single window.

It would be a great productivity enhancer were we able to view multiple files at a time in this way.

Thank you.
