Well, how about making it optional then? So the user can choose whether they
want the part to be displayed in the same window or load in a different window.
I usualy try and click them to load in a different window, but it is easy to
forget sometimes and the list takes a LONG time to load. Alternately maybe the
list can be broken up into several smaller list of parts, subparts, and
primitives.
