Hard to tell. Most apps open a new window when you read a document. In our case, we replace the open file if and only if the read is successful. We can only tell that the read is successful by reading, before we close the open file. This may be an issue with Max's path cache, but for the time being, there's kind of nothing to be/that will be done about it.
