    Default Suggestion: 'Close selected' on Windowlist

    Especially after doing a find/replace in files I end up with lots of windows open. It's an annoyance to have to close the ones that don't interest me one by one, either by closing the tabs or by closing the files in the windowlist, especially as closing a file in the windowlist also closes the dialog as well!

    Can the windowlist have checkboxes so that we can 'close selected'?

    You can do that now. Hold down Ctrl, select the windows to close and click the Close Window button.

    Problem is no sorting available makes it a lot less useful, for sure if you have a lot of files open

    I have asked before for the ability to sort tabs. Can't see why that wouldn't be possible as the open file list is saved into the registry on closing. Just sort it and reopen.
