I found another data point on this problem of LXDE's panel shifting
all windows in sawfish when it is used to select a window via the Task
Bar.

In lxpanel's preferences dialog, on the "Advanced" tab there is a
"Make window managers treat the panel as dock" check box.  If I
uncheck it then the panel gains a new entry in the Task Bar called
"panel" (presumably the panel itself).  Now if another entry in the
Task Bar is clicked all windows *still* shift up but clicking on the
"panel" entry shifts them all down again.

It's a kludge work-around but more importantly maybe it indicate to
the experts what is actually causing the shift in the first place.
