Hmm, you don't see it at all? That's odd, it's pretty easy to trigger
and I think Quinn also sees this.
Basically, if you get 3 overlapping windows on one face of the cube, 2
on another, switch from 3 to 2 and back again, then try clicking on a
window and watch your click go "through" the window to the one
underneath which will then be raised.
So the _visible_ stacking order is correct, though I've seen windows
jump to the front on rotate too, but the input events don't seem to
correspond to what's on screen.
I'll have a poke at this myself at some point in the next few days
hopefully.
