Bug Description

Hi

Both following command open several files in a unique window :

qpdfview --unique file1.pdf file2.pdf file3.pdf etc.

qpdfview file1.pdf file2.pdf file3.pdf etc. (without "--unique")

Without the "--unique" argument, a convenient and logical behaviour should be to open each of the file in its own window. It would be the default behaviour.

Open each of the file in its own window is very useful for many case of use.

Hello,

a single qpdfview process always manages exactly one main window, so if multiple windows are required, multiple processes must be spawned.
