We hide all floating windows when the document window that "owns" them loses the
focus *in favor of another document window* (not if any other window gets the
focus of course). In all other cases I agree with this statement.

Please find the explanation below.

But exactly that's what we have! Because every document window has its own
stylist we show only one of them at a time to avoid clutter. We think exactly
*because* there is more than one stylist we need to hide and show them depending
on the document window that has the focus. And we will not consider to change 
this.

And each stylist *has* its own position, but if you open a new document window
the  position of its stylist is "inherited" from the last one that was active.
If you saw the stylist of a document window jumping from one position to another
when you switch back and forth between two document windows I would consider
this to be a bug, and I agree with pl that this would be a different issue.

I think the stylist problem and the popup window problem you brought up might
indeed by a consequence of the same bug (I would expect to be found in VCL), but
it is not related to our hiding and showing or the floating windows as described
above. This procedure happens only when the focus is moved from one document
window to another one, not when the focus is transferred from a document window
to a floating window or dialog.

So you both could be right and wrong at the same time: the vanishing stylist and
the vanishing popup in case of "mouse over focus" being activated could indeed
be the same bug (as suggested by mwaeckerlin), but the general rant about the
stylist is (if at all) a different issue (as pointed out by pl).
