Fixed in 1.99p6, *and* the default action is for a currently open
folder to be brought to the front rather than re-opened. You can open
a second instance by holding down the Control key when you open the
folder.

Sorry. That can't be easily fixed. The way we should do it is to be
compatible with Apple's Desktop Database. We know how to do that but
didn't have the time. After 2.0 ships we'll look into this.
