I'm convinced by sl's reasoning, consider the previous suggestion withdrawn. That raises the inverse issue - should we change the rule for images to also always open a new page, and not 'take over' an existing instace? As it is, plumbing an image file will 'take over' a running page showing a /sys/doc (or whatever) ps/pdf file. Perhaps that should be changed to match the ps/pdf behavior, rather than the initial change I suggested?
The use case I have for the 'take over' behavior is sharing a single plumber between multiple systems, where only the message-passing function of plumber works, not launching new applications. This is not the common way plumber is used, so I don't think the defaults should be adjusted to favor it, I can always customize my own plumb rules for my own purposes.
