	Sorry for the late response, but I've just now come upon this message.
For the record, I'm experiencing this bug too, I think.  I filed a bug
against FC2's Mozilla for it after I found the way to create it.  I'm not
sure if it is a Sawfish bug or a Mozilla bug.  Should I file a Sawfish bug
in the Sawfish Bugzilla for this too?
