re Notes editor refuses to raise second "New" notelet editor

rc2 still contains for me the problem I did not yet see confirmed by  
anyone from 0.4.6.x

This is even after I had ensured that under

        GNUmed > Options > User interface > Progress notes handling >

it was set to multiple new episodes.

The status line reports: "Raising existing editor"

Can I please be reminded why we even need a backend configurational  
setting for whether to allow a second (new episode / problem) notelet  
editor to be raised, and why the default is to refuse to allow a  
second one to be raised?

It would seem to me that if a user does not want a second notelet  
editor, they do not click "New". Or, if they did click new and then  
decide they did not want it, they just click "Discard". If they save  
it, and then immediately realize the episode should have been  
assigned under an existing Health Issue, they can go to the EMR tree  
and reassign it.

Am I missing something? Are we protecting the user from something, by  
shipping the client with an active button which says "New" but which  
refuses to work?

I vote (in descending order) to
- remove the configurability
- keep the database storage area, but remove enforcement
- enforce, but set the default to "yes" and improve the status line
