Description
Any operation that opens a new tab in DrRacket (whether by explicitly opening a new tab or by opening a file when the “Open files in separate tabs” option is enabled) preserves the number of split panes open in the currently selected tab into the new tab, which is never what I want and seems like a bug.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First reproduce the behavior by splitting the current DrRacket tab, then opening a new tab or file with separate tabs enabled; the work is done when the new tab opens with a single pane instead of inheriting the current split count.
