Opening the results window in a separate (modeless) window

Hi all ...
I think a lot of developpers will like this idea:
The window that opens up as the result of an execution of a tool (e.g. a batch file running DIR) should be made a separate (and modelss) window so that users can leave it unattended on a separate monitor and not have to switch back and forth from this window to the window containing their file (or program) every time they execute a tool.
With this enhacement, for example, I could be typing my source code, hiting ctrl-something to compile, and see the results in another window without having to switch out of my code.
