Intersting! My theory so far was that *during* the change of focus, the
window depths might be inconsistent. But after OtpRestackWindow()ing the
newly focused window, it should be finished, and all consistent and
happy. That was consistent with my crash between the two calls to
OtpRestackWindow(). My change was also based on that idea.

So far I haven't turned on debugging to print all restacking operations,
but maybe it is time for that... and we might find out that everything
is different...
