So, the original statement is false. I (the user) cannot have as many
popups open as I want. I can only have as many open as the page
designer will permit me to have.
However, I (the web page designer) can foist pages on the hapless user,
or can prevent him from being able to do what he wants (which is, for
example, to see four different hotel rooms at the same time) if I don't
want him to do that easily.
That turns the computer upside down.
For this reason, I would say that the goal of dictating how windows are
to be opened, used, and closed, is flawed. Let the user decide. Cue
the user as to how to do it, if necessary. And do provide at least a
"next/previous picture" button in the blowup. But don't take over the
user's options.
