Tool dialogs end up all in one window when opening multiple documents

[Thomas ten Cate]

Using Arch Linux on x86_64.
$ inkscape --version
Inkscape 0.91 r13725 (May 25 2015)

Steps to reproduce:

- Make sure it's not some messed up config:
  $ mv ~/.config/inkscape ~/.config/inkscape.bak
- Launch Inkscape:
  $ inkscape
- Draw a rectangle.
- Hit Ctrl+Shift+F and change the rectangle's colour. (Not sure this is needed. Just need to make sure the Fill and Stroke dialog sticks around in the saved file.)
- Save the file twice, as "drawing1.svg" and "drawing2.svg".
- Quit Inkscape.
- Open both documents in one command:
  $ inkscape drawing*.svg

Expected result:

Each Inkscape window contains a copy of the Fill and Stroke window. Inkscape is stable.

Actual result:

One of the windows contains both tool dialogs, in my case it's "drawing2.svg" (screenshot attached). The other Inkscape window has no tool dialogs. Attempts to open, close or manipulate tool dialogs often result in a segfault. The core dump is too large to attach, but gdb gives me the following backtrace:

After closing and restarting Inkscape *without* any arguments, I still got a window with several duplicate docked tool dialogs.

Likely related earlier report:
* Bug #1481719 “Crash when hiding dock with two files open”
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1481719
(describes similar unstable symptoms caused by the same trigger - opening multiple files via command line arguments)

The dialogs restored from the last session (new feature in Inkscape 0.91) are not stored for a specific file - the feature uses a dialog state saved in Inkscape's preferences file (global, not per SVG document edited ealier).

[jazzynico (jazzynico)]

Not reproduced on Windows XP, Inkscape trunk rev. 14506.
Each Inkscape window has it's own docked dialog, and the application doesn't crash.

[jazzynico (jazzynico)]

Reproduced on Xubuntu 15.10, Inkscape trunk rev. 14512.

When reopening the files, Inkscape shows the following console message:
---
** (inkscape:14042): WARNING **: master 0x7081080: unable to add object 0xba133b0[DialogFillStroke] to the hash. There already is an item with that name (0x804a040).
---

And crashes when existing the application (see attached bt).

Closing as unable to reproduce in Inkscape 1.1. Both windows have the dialogs and they work as expected after following the recommended steps to reproduce.
