I have to say I like the new feature and being able to avoid loading the same patch twice, even as an expert, so I guess a flag or something that allows us to configure this is fine.

Ah, yes, a fourth option: have a new "pd really-open" message to open a file without checking if it's a duplicate.

Much to my alarm, Pd 0.49test3 prevents loading multiple instances of a patch, and release notes tell us that this is on purpose.
funnily, i recently worked on a related regression where double-clicking on a Pd-patch (in your favourite Windows exploder) would start a new instance of Pd (rather than switching to the current instance and raising the patch if already opened).
note however, that this regression (fix) is unrelated to what you are describing.
and i agree that it should be possible to open the same patch multiple times. esp. on a programmatic layer (that is: by sending messages to Pd). i guess, when opening an already opened patch from the menu (Ctrl-O), Pd could *ask* whether this is really intended.
