--- Comment #1 from andreas.naumann at kdemail.net ---
I have some questions to that feature request:

1. How should new-window behave with multiple files? open all files in the new
instance and one tab per file in case "use-tabs" is enabled? (if use-tabs is
disabled, okular will use multiple instances/windows anyway) or should it open
one window per file? 
  I suggest to call the option "new-instance" and then open all files in tabs.
If "use-tabs" is disabled then "new-instance" will have no effect.

2. If the users want to use tab, they can enable them. Thus, I see no real use
in "--new-tab". 

3. Instead of "--new-tab", I would prefer something like "--target
<okular-dbus-name>" . That flag would open all files in new tabs of the
specified instance. Does that qualify for another feature request?
