ok, so from now on, in unity 3.2.6, we have "Open New Window" in quicklist by default to run multiple instance of applications.

This make the use of "create a new document" useless (or the wording should be changed for them, maybe?) As this has (or should have) the exactly same behavior of "create a new document". So quicklist items for those is useless? Or maybe, when we add the quicklist, we should have a way to remove "create a new document" in the desktop file explicitly?

If we keep "Open New Window", we are coherent for other application (and I think most of application will use documents, so creating a new one)
If we want for some applications hiding "Open New Window" and adding "Create a new document", this will create some inconsistency and I think we will have to patch a lot of applications, even those we don't support fully like glabels only to get the same wording.

Openoffice writer/spreadsheet/presentation is behaving as expected, as well as inkscape.

There is a bug/feature in gimp making than opening gimp again by "Open New Window" just focus it. I'll add a separate one for that.
