Multi-file split view

[samalander]

First, thanks for the gedit 3 version!

This is more of a feature request/idea than an issue... Would it be possible for the 2 views to show different files?

If I take the readme.md screenshot as an example, the top view could be from cobaltDark.xml and the bottom one from SplitView.py (or any other combo). I'm guessing that a second set of tabs would have to be displayed on top of the bottom/right view to keep it clear which tab is being shown in there.

Thanks for reading this.

I believe this sort of thing existed in Doty's original Gedit 2 version of the plugin. I removed most of such functionality since Gedit 3 has tab groups and I was trying to simplify things. However tab groups were decided to only be horizontal in Gedit 3. So I will keep the idea in mind, but for now you can pull the tab out into a seperate window and stack to your desire.
