Usability Issue / Potential Bug - Plugins #2

Description

@FactEngineCommunity

If a Plugin, such as the Firebird plugin, is used within more than one Source within the same project, only one Manager is presented to the user.

e.g. When the Project is opened, and the first Source, the Firebird connection Manager will be displayed. When you open the second Source the Manager object seems to be copied over to the second Source (tab) such that it is displayed as the Manager for Firebird in that Source. When going back to the first Source tab, the Manager is no longer displayed...but rather a blank panel.

It seems that rather than creating a clone of the Source's Manager, the actual object is copied, and then shared by both respective tabs/panels.

This may not be what is happening, but rather conceptually what is happening.

The usability issue is that for some reason the user may want to access two Firebird 'Sources' within the one Project.

This issue happens, at least, in the version of the exe and the code that I have downloaded.
