[BUG] Morphic windows opened from MVC aren't fully visible

I noticed this bug while trying out Bob's recent ObjectExplorer additions.
(tested on a Mac G3)

If you try to open a Morphic window while in MVC, the Morphic window will
appear inside the MVC window, but its offset is wrong, so that a large
part of it is obscured.  If you then try to move the MVC window, the
Morphic window inside it often dissappears.  Also, if fastDragForMorphic
is true, there's a (probably related) offset problem displaying the drag
rectangle when dragging the Morphic window.

For examples, try clicking on the web address in the Getting Started
window, or evaluating "3 explore" in a Workspace.

This bug wasn't there in Squeak 2.3, but it is there in 2.4 and 2.5.
