There were some changes early last year in the order things
where drawn and size-allocated.

I'm pretty certain that the 1.0.x code doesn't call
->draw "at random". If you have some particular example of
behavior you want explained, you might want to detail
exactly what you see happening.

(The redraw logic has also been changed a fair bit in 1.1.x,
 but most things that work in 1.0.x should work in 1.1.x
 as well)
