Works well on my initial test. Double height is tall, but might sometimes come 
in handy.

When I was previously testing with inserting the row myself using the win 
plugin, I re-discovered the peculiarity with Delphi apps, that they each have a 
TApplication class window which is not the one that should be processed.

Does the new bar position reject windows that don't have a menu or (if not) 
deal with destroying the handle? Guess I should try that.
