Actually, I just checked on windows vista, and it works (2nd window 
allows cloning back to 1st window). I tested before, but tricked myself.

Please not when you test, that there is another restriction. Each unique 
file can only have one tab per window.

So if you cloned "unit1" from window-1 to window-2, then it is open in 
both windows. This means you can not clone (not move) it to window-1 as 
it is already open there.
