Makes sense to me - it's not unlike sending a playlist to a media player/editor.

When the External xHTML Editor is defined as something other than PageEdit only xHTML resources can opened.

The latter is as I intended, but the former is not.

Though it's still not the end of the world at that. Always launching PageEdit with all html resources available whenever clicking the Launch External xHTML button was always the intended goal (whenever PageEdit is defined as the external editor, that is).
FTR:
I don't have anything in the External xHTML Editor setting, and I don't use buttons; so, any changes relating to the above shouldn't effect me.

However, I do use Page Edit via Book Browser->Open With - a lot. This is how I use it:

When I open a specific xhmtl with PageEdit I only have access to that specific file in Page Edit. To get the entire book into Page Edit I open the opf via the Book Browser->Open With.

I would 'hate' for le ménage à trois between me, Sigil, and Page Edit to change - it's a Perfect Match
