I've noticed that with some regularity, calling up the Quicksilver
window has the effect of bringing it to just behind the frontmost
application window. Usually, this means I can't see it at all, but if
I drag the frontmost window away from the center of the screen, I can
see it. Right now, I'm using the BezelHUD interface, and QS B59 (and
Mac OS 10.6.7).

First: is anyone else seeing this happen, and any idea why it does?

Second: QS is not the only application that does this. The other place
I find this happening is with OmniFocus' QuickEntry panel, which
similarly is supposed to pop to the top, but winds up just peeking out
from behind a Finder or Safari window that I had frontmost.  (With QS
it's a bit worse, because while I have the OF QE panel positioned off
to the side of the screen, so I can see it peek out, the position of
the QS panel is in a portion of the screen that is almost always
occupied.)

This doesn't happen all the time.  When it does, restarting QS appears
to solve the problem, at least for a while. I'm simultaneously running
a few other programs that have this kind of a "pop to the top"
systemwide shortcut. I've never seen this happen with Twitter or
Alfred, I can't recall if I've ever seen this happen with LaunchBar,
but I do have all of these running, if that makes a difference.

Any ideas about why this might be happening, or any "me too"s?
