Yes, the US Secretary of State (Colin Powell) uses that pronunciation.
It's a little like the two possible ways to pronounce "Uranus". One is
used by people who want to avoid nervous childish titters (!) while the
other is used by people who like to affect a moue of disdain when they
hear nervous childish titters at their pronunciation.

I know of none, but that doesn't mean much. I generally try to write
stuff that doesn't do a lot of manipulation of other windows or program
spaces, because it always seems to create considerably more problems
than it might ever solve. That's why I don't know much about whether
there could be problems here. It's just a hunch -- the first thing I'd
try doing is disabling the code that manipulates other program windows,
and see if that solves the problem or not.
Even if it does solve the issue, you don't necessarily have to leave
off on manipulating the other windows. Perhaps it's just a specific
combination of commands in a specific order that does it.
