FWIW: I think I already have Windows behaving as you describe via the use of the 7+ Taskbar Tweaker (free). But as you can see from the attached screen shot its not easy to see at a glance (without hovering the mouse) how many and which documents are open. But IMO it's better than having multiple copies of the same icon on the taskbar.

In case anyone's interested, I've also attached a screen shot of Word with DOCX versions of the same documents open in a couple of tabs via Office Tabs (not free).

Interesting. On my Windows 7 and later Windows 10 install, the Sigil icon on the taskbar never does multiple copies though a shadow effect on the icon and underline shows multiple copies are open. I have to hover over it to see the thumbnails for the multiple instances as per attached image. I think this is set by the Combine taskbar buttons being set to "always combine, hide labels" setting.
