unsure there. at this point i don't know what in e would cause it as it tries
to delete ALL windows it tracks - irrespective of desktop. it sets up a timer
then when that times out, if any windows are left, e complains (the timeout is
20 seconds). it monitors windows being closed/deleted - and once the window
list is empty, it actually exits or begins system shutdown/reboot etc.
