Opening file already opened does not bring up source editor

I have noticed that when you open a file from the file dialog or double-click it in the project inspector, the file will not show if it is already opened in the source editor.

I expect that the source editor that contains it will pop up to the front and highlight the file. Is this a bug or a feature not yet implemented?

I'm on Lazarus 0.9.30.1 revision 31861

This feature exists since many years. In trunk it works.

I'm on Lazarus 0.9.30.1 revision 31861

It works with an older reversion, so maybe it is a recent regression.

Are the older revisions those which have mullitple source editing windows?

0.9.30 does not get any features, only bug fixes.
