[Lazarus] IDE flaws

Currently I observe the following flaws (Win7):
1) An editor page in a secondary editor window *only* can be cloned into
a new window. Why does the handling of secondary editor windows differ
from the handling of the primary window???
2) Code completion still gets stuck all the time. The list is either
blanked, or contains only "Bad..." entries.
3) Possibly related to secondary editor windows: a code template
invocation (^J) can end up in a different window (previously active?).
In most cases it helps to switch to an different tab/file in the
originating window, and back again.
4) In IdeWindowIntf TIDEWindowCreator.GetDefaultBounds(), relative
window extents are computed in a wrong way. In both horizontal and
vertical direction the lines
if aRight<0 then
aRight:=ScreenR.Right-aRight // relative to right of screen
should be corrected into
aRight:=ScreenR.Right + aRight // relative to right of screen
because aRight/aBottom is already negative!
