Ability to open a new instance and connect from the site-manager

While plodding away in the site-manager I found myself in need of connecting to one of the sites. Only the current instance was already connected and in mid-xfer. So I had to close the manager. hit F12 and wait 'til another instance was opened.
This isn't a big thing, but sitting there I found myself thinking that this should be possible from the manager itself. What do the masses think?

i think its a godo idea

a suggestion to go with this would be for the site manager to stay open after selecting a site to connect to
(ie. double click to connect but teh site manager stays open)

i think you should get used to some ffxp limitations untill ffxp can truely handle multi site connections

Well, it's not so much a case of needing multi-site connections as it is taking advantage of functionality that's already inplace; it would be easy to make one instance open another and pass along the site to connect to as it does if you do it from the command-line. Both uses parameters.
