Cool! I'll try it tomorrow when I'm back in front of the
machine with two monitors...

Well, windows opened behind rather than on top, two at once
jumped sideways by half their width to the left partly off
screen, focus got stuck on the wrong windows (the one behind
rather than the one the mouse was actually over...) This
was all before I dropped in quartz-wm-20081203 though.
I'll give it another go tomorrow on the same machine, with
quartz-wm-20081204 in place as well. It could just have
been an instance of "the first relaunch of X11 after an
upgrade has a strop that isn't reproducible", that several
others have also reported experiencing.

Agreed, that list sounds completely harmless compared to
what I saw.
