gEDA-user: gschem's "Save All" doesn't save all



Ran a quick test:
 1) Launched gschem for an existing schematic:
                gschem -v Second_1.sch
    and made some changes.
 2) Opened another window (File | New Window).
 3) In the new window, opened a second existing schematic
    and made some changes.
 4) Saved both schematics (File | Save All).

The schematic in the window where the Save All was done was saved (as
per the status bar), the other was not (per the status bar).

Immediately quitting (File | Quit) prompts with an unsaved schematics
message.

Opening the two files into a single window with:
     gschem -v Second_1.sch Second_2.sch
making changes, and then executing Save All works fine.

Is there really any reason for the New Window feature and multiple
windows/pages on the desktop?

What is the preferred workflow when you want to work with multiple
schematics and jump between them?

TIA
