One further question for any "me too"s, perhaps, since it occurs to me I have one thing running that might have an effect. Though Unsanity probably gets a worse rap than deserved, any "me too"s also running Windowshade X? I was thinking that maybe it does something to elevate (sometimes?) the frontmost window further than expected. I'm going to try turning it off to see if I still see this happen, though I won't know for a while whether it's had an effect.
