This is an invaluable work around when it's needed, I've had other apps do that 
too.  I think there's another step in there where you have to select the move 
option from the menu by pressing enter, or at least there's some point where a 
non-obvious enter is required before the cursor keys actually start moving the 
window.  Hmm, can't reproduce it now, but if you're trying this and it doesn't 
seem to be working, an enter might be needed.

OT: It amazes me that an OS which actually calls itself "Windows" ships with a 
window manager which buries critical dialogs under all the other windows.  And 
that this *still* happens in Windows 7.  "It's been saying 'Please wait, 
installing' for three hours... oh wait, there's a click to continue dialog 
underneath the main installer window, with no entry on the task bar...".
