Subject: [PATCH] The note in curentEdit is not changed until the window is
 closed.

https://anki.tenderapp.com/discussions/ankidesktop/31105-reopening-an-edit-window
I added a «reopen» method, which I believe may be useful in other
cases too. I check whether the method exists before calling it, so
there should be no compatibility problem.
