Is there a way to link two viewports so that as you navigate around one, the other follows exactly, just like it does in the head modelling videos recently posted on the LW forum; http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=29256

It'd be nice to have a one for modelling and one showing the result without having to switch between the two.

You could set up a couple of cameras, & link them together, then if you were looking through one in one viewport & you panned or orbited in one the other camera (at up as the other viewport) would follow (sort of, depending on what angle they were set up at)

It had crossed my mind, but it seems a little dramatic for something which is essentially just to aid the modelling process. Perhaps I'll write a plugin to do it if there's no other ways...
