That depends on the particular PDF viewer. With Acrobat Reader, you're
right. If we passed the "/n" switch to Reader that ought to open a new
instance of the program in which the PDF is opened at the second
destination, but I'm not sure that's what the user would want (multiple
copies of Reader running).
I think the situation is similar with pdf-previews of TeX-documents. One
of the reasons I try to avoid Acrobat on Windows is because the
view-refresh is so much better with other lightweight PDF programs
(SumatraPDF for example).
But some Acrobat-handling tricks might be learned from the TeX editors
on Windows. For example it could be that they tell Acrobat to close the
program and the re-open it in the running instance.
