Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Playing in split screen on the same display is really annoying and uncomfortable.
Describe the solution you'd like
Support for opening a 2nd windows instead of have 2 screens split in the same windows. This way each screen can be in a different display with no dependency between them (for example, 2 different sized displays).
Describe alternatives you've considered
Having the mod take input from a specific controller so I can open 2 different instances and have each controller control an instance.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how Controlify and Minecraft currently create split-screen windows and route controller input. Done would mean independent windows can appear on separate displays without shared split-screen constraints, with the controller-per-instance alternative evaluated.
