If need to, have UR open ONLY one editable item and if user wants more of it, open it in read-only.
Yes, we intend to address this in the next release.

You seem to be aware of some issues concerning too many tabs opened that we do not necessarily see ourselves in such clarity. if you need to, why not impose a max limit on number of tabs that you deem safe till you fix the issue once and for all.
We were just speculating that having many tabs open might be a factor (although it works fine in our tests, and changes are saved before switching tabs). I can see where changes made to the same item from two different tabs could be problematic (which will be prevented as mentioned above), but we haven't yet discovered a way for the contents of one item to replace the contents of another item, regardless of the number of open tabs.
