kien/ctrlp.vim — Issue #83: Can't Re-open Buffer In Split

State: open

If I try to use ctrlp to open a buffer in a second split, instead, control just moves back to the first split I have the buffer open in. For example...

| FILE A | FILE B |

(left/right split view)

If I move to the FILE B split, then ctrl-p and try to open FILE A, the right split stays on its current buffer and control moves back to the left split.

Is this a bug or by design? If it's by design is there a way to disable it? (sometimes I find it useful to open a buffer in 2 splits to view different parts of the file. at the moment I have to close the split and then re-split the first file, or use :e).
