I've managed to get my sawfish session into a state in which windows
which are lowered vanish.  They're not iconified in the window list
(iconified windows are in brackets), and they can be raised via the
window list.

However, my zephyr windows are currently in this lowered state and not
raisable (zephyrs don't appear in my window list).

I have never had this happen before, so while it seems possible that
it's not 9.3-related, I'm deeply suspicious of that desktop with the
house on it.  

Is this an interesting bug, that I should investigate further?  It's
pretty annoying, so if there's nothing useful to be gained by leaving
my login in this state, I'd rather not. :) 

I've copied my current .gconf directory to ~/.gconf-state.
