Ah, so that's what that button is for. I haven't played with all of
them. I think that's what Greg was asking after earlier on -c dev.

That would be me. Congratulate Heather for suggesting that this would
be a useful feature. 8)

Which is what the "Grab" button is for, I think. 8)
Actually, I'd like to figure out how to set it up so you can use the
GUI to put different classes and instances in different locations, in
different colors, etc. (Heather said this was a very asked-for
feature.) But that's not at the top of my todo list right now.
Speaking of zwgc, I can sort-of see why you'd want them to be
always-on-top (I don't happen to like windows that do that) but I
can't for the life of me explain why the reverse-stacking (so that as
you click, you read through chronologically) isn't the default.
