Why does Galeon upset sawfish?

<http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91056> contains details of a
sawfish bug when used with Xinerama. Galeon is one of two programs I've
found that trigger it - random windows and/or the panel disappear and/or
sawfish crashes - so I wonder if the developers can help identify
anything unusual Galeon is doing.

I did once report it as a Galeon bug
<http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=112749> but I now realise
it's in sawfish.

The trigger is when I download a very small file, so that it's already
finished downloading before I've finished with the Save As dialogue. I
guess at this point it goes to open the download status window but
closes it before it's had a chance to open properly.

If you do find Galeon's doing something slightly antisocial, I'd be very
grateful if you could change it so that I can go on using galeon,
sawfish and two monitors in harmony. I've already found a way to stop
the other trigger program (MPlayer) being a problem.
