In order for the PDF preview's forward/backward searching to be really useful, I would like to put the source documents in one tab list on the left and the PDF preview on the right. However, currently when I double click in the PDF it will open the source in the same tab group as the PDF preview, effectively hiding the preview. This is even when there is already a source opened on the left tab group.

Would it be possible for Pdf4Eclipse to detect that second tab group (which in my use case, is the 'left' group so perhaps favoring left or 'first' groups?) and use that to open the source files?
