Why not? As far as I can see this is a quite clean way of doing it.

But of course - we still also need that integration with the
native OS'es - so going with the completely general function
for creating both multiple windows and subwindows (as David Olofson
suggested from the beginning :) is probably The Right Way (TM).

If only I had more time I would have implemented this already... :(
