Thanks for sharing the plans for electron.
In my feature suggestion for a new window, I am not referring to a new window using electron, but instead I meant a new
windowin the existing web browser.
I am unfamiliar with the effort needed for electron integration. But I suspect that opening a new window in an existing
webbrowser should be much more easily achievable.
Wdyt?

We would love to have a separate window for pgAdmin 4, hence - we're already working on the POC (using electron), and
itis a side line project, and getting delayed due to limited resources working on the pgAdmin 4.
I would like to invite other python/electron developers to help us evolving the project in correct direction.
