IDE and Teensy Serial Monitor

Two issues with Teensy Ports in IDE:

> Using DUAL or Triple Serial on USB only presents the primary device to connect for SerMon usage.
- Could it recognize and present the second (third) USB port to connect?

> Using IDE 2 Sermon and once connected the Device is not 'released' (on Windows) for use - even when IDE 2 <edit: 2 not 1> Teensy SerMon is closed - by other Serial Monitor apps.
- IDE 2 closing the 'Teensy Ports' SerMon does not allow IDE 1 or TyCommander to connect to that port
-- requires going to TaskMan and killing "Arduino IDE" / teensy-monitor.exe
- then closing in IDE 1 releases it for use in TyCommander.
-- Connecting again with IDE 2 works, but is then again 'HELD' and not usable by other apps while 'teensy-monitor.exe' is active.

Ran into this again today?

@PaulStoffregen - is this an IDE 2 problem to report, or something specific to Teensy Serial Monitor holding the port open in IDE 2 even when the SerMon is clicked off?

IDE 1 does not do this.
