I can't find this in previous issues, but if possible, it would be hugely useful to include the (very standard) "Window" menu bar option on macOS. (No idea if this is also an issue on Windows or Linux).

This menu usually includes a "Bring All To Front" option as well as the ability to see which sketch windows are open and makes it easy to select one to work on.

The current situation without this menu option makes life (and coding) incredibly frustrating when you have a few sketches open, and a browsers open, etc.

I can confirm that there is no "Window" menu bar option on the IDE for windows.
My current IDE version is 1.8.5 (EDIT: Just updated to 1.8.7, still the same), and this is the options currently on the menu bar (On my IDE, Windows 10)

@per1234 Thank you for pointing me to that issue.

But it was opened in 2012!!
And has had only one comment since 2016.

With all due respect, that's a bit crazy slow.

And also why I probably couldn't find it.
