Comment (by ippetkov):

 Replying to [comment:3 helen]:
 > I think it's probably as simple as changing the target from "wp-preview"
 to "_blank", if this is indeed a desired change.

 Adding "_blank" to the target would make a new tab appear for every time
 "preview" is clicked.

 I've added a patch which basically uses the post ID as part of the target
 name. Thus every post gets its own dedicated preview tab which will get
 refreshed on subsequent previews.

 Also, entering the post editor will clear the tab's frame name. This is so
 that if a user starts editing post 1 and then begins editing post 2 from
 post 1's preview page, a new preview page gets opened for post 1 instead
 of blowing away their editing in progress.
