I've never seen that so I guess not.

As I said, it seems random and not noticeably related to the method choice. My only (faintly plausible) guess so far is that the code detecting the active morph for getting the requester from is not as reliable as we'd want. I *do* have some occasional annoyances where the system behaves as if the cursor point has suddenly jumped away from where I think it is, and so some other window suddenly leaps to the front, or some drag action starts, or stuff like that. Maybe that's related?
