Description

Currently opening a session closes everything that was open. I understand the reasoning, at least for 3D data in Chimera, but I don't think it should close the help viewer. My use case was a handmade HTML page with cxcmd to open a session file. I opened the page and then I was confused that as soon as I clicked the link to open my session file, the page disappeared. I imagine that often people will want to use this mechanism to open sessions and then do subsequent demo steps.

Please reassign as appropriate.

Help viewer should be "session enduring".
