I had kicked off a massive, dual-job build on a somewhat underwhelming
box, and apparently could get the window manager's attention from a couple
of points (frame controls), but not in general, or probably I just
expected immediate response and it was totally slogged by the compilation
load.

When the build terminated, the windows came back to managable condition.

'Live and live ...' as they say.

 Not in my lifetime.

Thanks again.
