Hi Willem,

Thanks for your work on this... Menu problems in my mind have a huge impact on
usability.

Just a historical note: when I first worked on the menu code many moons ago I
used override_redirect windows for the menu windows. I never had this race
problem back then... Of course, using override_redirect windows caused some
other problems, I just don't remember what they were... sorry. :-)

Cheers,

Michael
