I'm using 4.3.0-42 and have noticed that the following minor bug in
multi-window operation when running on Win2K and WinXPPro:

Two windows (terminal or otherwise) are overlapped and the topmost one has
it's "Always on top" attribute set (by right-clicking on the windows title
bar). The topmost window is then minimised, leaving a copy of its contents
on the desktop, viewable by moving the remaining window over the portion of
the desktop previously occupied by the other window.

Confirmed.

Does anyone know how other window managers usually handle the always-on-top-then-minimized use case?
