We've run into all sorts of problems with launching Sigil via calibre's Open With (third-party plugin or integral feature?). Please make sure the crash is repeatable when taking calibre's Open With out of the equation. There's just too many ways that calibre's Qt and Sigil's Qt can get confused. We need to rule that out first. Also, we've given up trying to support the abandoned third party calibre "Open With" plugin. Using Calibre's inherent Open With feature doesn't typically cause the same issues.
I also can't recreate your new cmd window when launching Sigil that way. Sigil does certainly detach itself from the command (as it should--it's not a terminal windows application after all), but no new terminal window gets launched for me.
