Yes, closing previous example automatically is definitely not
user-friendly. Displaying an alert is better since it tells user
what is going on. It is trivial to implement and matches what happens
if I try to open an example before initing Valentina.
On the other hand, the examples stack should be quite robust as far
as operating, although it does not have to be a properly polished
Revolution app (just to clarify the use of 'robust').
