To fix the menu stacking problem, see "gmplayer -fstype help". I suggest using -fstype none.
Mplayer does stupid things to try to stack its windows. I suggest to report further problems to the mplayer people.

This (a related?) problem was up on e-users recently. (g)mplayer does stupid things like sending menus to layer 0. This may be an mplayer configuration thing. If it messes with the layers for other windows something is seriously broken.
In pre4 I added some debug stuff to track down problems like this. If you want to find out what is going on (I'd like to know), set EDBUG_FLAGS=1 before starting E. This will print the received client messages to stdout.
If you just want the problems to go away you could try adding --disable-hints-gnome when configuring.

Can you reproduce this after recompiling/installing E from scratch? Are you sure you are not seeing some saved settings?
I tried this when I installed -pre4. Just to be sure, I grepped ~/.enlightenment/...e_session-XXXXXX.snapshots.0 for LAYER, found nothing, wiped out .enlightenment and did a clean install from cvs. This fix it, but I do have some more info now.
It only happens after I run mplayer (0.90).
Steps I followed: 1. Start Eterm 2. Run mplayer (eg "mplayer -alang en dvd://5") 3. Start a new Eterm and watch how it mysteriously stacks under the old one. 4. Set the old Eterm to Normal stacking. Problem fixed... for now.
So now the question is, what does mplayer do?
