Can't help with these, but the worst problem I have with it is that it
sometimes interrupts running applications, i.e., MPW, Apple File Exchange.
Clicking the mouse gets things going again, but it's awful to come back
to your machine and find that it didn't let your compile finish. Set the
inactive time high.

Less damaging, but still annoying, is that it doesn't background (forget
using it on a TOPS server), and that sometimes upon returning to MPW, all
the windows are left black, as well as the menu bar. This is with ff v.90.
