  Binary package hint: nautilus
  
  When opening a modal dialog from a java application in a gnome desktop
  that uses nautilus, nautilus collects all the java app windows into a
  single icon/entry in the gnome toolbar. When the dialog is dismissed,
  the gnome toolbar shows again a single icon/entry for each window of the
  java app.
  
  The removal of window entries in the gnome toolbar repaints the toolbar
- each time (and can see it removing the entries one by one) and can take
- from under a second to 10 seconds or more when having hundreds of
+ each time (and I can see it removing the entries one by one) and can
+ take from under a second to 10 seconds or more when having hundreds of
  windows open.
  
  The archetypical java app with hundreds of windows is ImageJ, a public-
  domain application for scientific image processing of widespread use.
  
  If I understood it correctly, the behaviour of the gnome desktop, that
  of collecting all windows into one when there is a modal dialog showing,
  is to prevent the selection/manipulation of other windows of the same
  app.
  
  It would be ideal if:
-  - the gnome toolbar did a single repaint, potentially eliminating all the 
lag without compromising the functionality.
-  - the gnome toolbar just marked each window entry as inactive instead of 
removing it.
