Description
I think it is very annoying, that when you open the same picture multiple times, it always creates a new window instead of focusing the one where it is already opened.
I would suggest an option to disable this, because maybe someone relies on this "feature" ;)

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the code that opens images and creates or focuses application windows, then determine how an option should control duplicate openings. Done means the selected behavior is configurable and opening an already open picture follows that setting.
