Okay, I just tested all of the following (this is with Sigil-0.9.17 installed in /Applications).
Starting with Sigil not running for all test cases:
1. drag an epub onto Sigil icon in dock
- launches one instance of Sigil with that epub, no empty epub generated
2. using macOS right click on epub and use open with and select Sigil.app
- launches one instance of Sigil with that epub, no empty epub is created
3. double click on Sigil icon and it launches with an empty epub
I repeated some test with Sigil already running but no window opened:
1. drag on epub onto the active Sigil icon in the dock opens just that epub
2. try using macOS open with on an epub, and it launches a whole new instance of Sigil.app (see the second Sigil icon in the doc) and loads it.
This is outside Sigil's control.
Testing using the Sigil menus and icons all seems to work.
Now with Sigil running no matter how I launched Sigil, I was able to load PageEdit with Sigil's open with just fine.
If you are seeing different behaviour then you must not be using mac OS 10.13.6 as that is the development machine I am currently using or your system setup has somethign strange. I have two other tests machines, one running 10.12 and the other running 10.13.5 (I forgot to update it).
All show the exact same behaviour.
