Doesn't work with existing double windows

If I already have two windows open and attempt to preview a regex, instead of creating a third or fourth window (depending on how many windows exist already) it just doesn't do anything.

I assume by 'window' you mean 'editor'?

It opens only a single editor to the side for all regexes. Would you want an additional editor for each regex?

my bad, I meant the side editor, I had no idea what to call it

Yes, it does open a single editor, but if you already have two editors open, it doesn't open anything, so perhaps it can open another one if there is already two editors open and alert the user once they have reached the maximum amount of editors and that one more cannot be opened?
