It wasn't jitouch causing my problems with the bezelHUD interface opening 
behind all other applications. So I've reinstalled jitouch & gone back to the 
cube interface.

Jon, I know about BTT's window snapping/resizing feature but I just like how 
jitouch allows you to randomly grab a corner, & resize momentarily. For 
instance when my QS interface's opens hidden behind a window.
