StackOverflow Question here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31052212/how-can-i-duplicate-a-non-editor-panel-in-eclipse

Pasted excerpt:
"
I had exactly the same problem another user (arghtype (http://stackoverflow.com/users/2417043/arghtype)) is having here (http://stackoverflow.com/a/22908815/1091943) in this question's thread: How to enable duplicate tabs in Eclipse? (i.e. duplicate windows) (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4834594/how-to-enable-duplicate-tabs-in-eclipse-i-e-duplicate-windows/22908815#22908815)
Although, it is only an answer post that doesn't necessarily achieve what we both want.
It recommends opening a separate, duplicated window, which is a bit resource heavy for what I need.

I wanted to formally ask this question in case anyone has the appropriate answer instead of a work-around or compromise, or we can open a feature request in the Eclipse work item tracker, and this way the answer and any history can become more apparent for this specific issue.

To add, my specific case is using RTC 5.0.2 with Eclipse 4.2.2 (Juno), and I would like multiple "Work Items" panels open for my workflow. One for overall reference, one for current, immediate work, and any more for what have you.

Other related source I found that all seem to speak about the similar, more prevalent issue, specifically concerning only the editor tab/panel:
