I think I'm on the right way - I opened a map in the first window and a second 
one in the second window. All I did was to extend OpenProjectElementCommand by 
a constructor where the workbenchWindow can be specified, in which the Map 
shall be opened:

OpenProjectElementCommand( IProjectElement element, IWorkbenchWindow window )

So, if there is a need for assigning maps to certain perspectives, maybe this 
is a simple way...

Now, I'll now try to get the second action item managed: the duplication of the 
LayersView.
