As far as I can tell, there are 4 (essentially 3 on macOS) ways to open a file in Aegisub. They work inconsistently on the two OSes:
Dropping files on the application icon (does anyone do that?):
On macOS, Aegisub attempts to combine the files into a single project (e.g. subs + video) and opens it in an existing window. If there are unsaved changes, they are silently discarded.
On Windows, same as on macOS but in a new window.
Double-clicking in Finder/Explorer:
On macOS, same as the first due to the way the OS works, except only subs are likely to be opened with Aegisub, so only one file ends up being opened.
On Windows, each file opens in a new window.
"Open subtitles file" dialog:
On macOS, the file opens in a new window.
On Windows, the file opens in the same window. If there are unsaved changes, Aegisub displays a prompt.
Dropping files on an Aegisub window:
On macOS, same as the first two.
On Windows, same as on macOS (including silently discarding unsaved changes).
I propose cleaning up this mess. In particular, at least the following should be true:
Unsaved changes are never silently discarded
If the file isn't explicitly opened in a specific window, it opens in a new window
