Description
As discussed with stramer, who recommended this ticket be created.
Adding windows to windows causes an exception on android, as doing so it not allowed. iOS currently tolerates it, however.
This causes problems for some iOS developers who attempt to adapt their app for android, discover that it crashes at some win1.add(win2) code and wrongly believe android is at fault (see http://developer.appcelerator.com/question/105341/nested-windows-crashes-android-apps"> this Q&A post).
Hence, request that adding windows to windows throw an exception on iOS to avoid confusion.
Still valid 2.2.0.014b86f. Fits into the widget/viewGroup/etc. discussion about general
addbehavior.Closing ticket due to time passed and lack of input or progress in the past few years.
