Re: Lose 'open' dialogue when detaching external screen

This is only slightly related, but when inputting Japanese, it can
happen that the small Latin->Kana->Kanji conversion Window is invisible
(using that is very much blind typing; I have to guess what Kanji might
be the first, second, choice,...). This happens when the screen configuration
looks as follows:

        222222222222222222222
        222222222222222222222
        222222222222222222222
        222222222222222222222
        222222222222222222222
        222222222222222222222
              111111111
              111111111
        X     111111111

(2 is a big external screen, 1 a small internal one). My guess
is that the small conversion window appears at the location marked
with X.
