I just ran across something like this for the first time today and can reproduce it. I tried to run eog (a GNOME image viewer) from the command line with a URL and learned that I couldn't. eog popped up an error message with file not found, but for some reason, instead of being centered on the screen, it was up in the top left corner. Initially, the image was drawn underneath the tabs (but over my dzen status bar and the xterm that spawned it); when I meta-clicked to move it, the error window was again drawn correctly, and I could not make the window move back underneath the tabs.
I think I can now reproduce it: select a tiled layout and open at least 3 windows. Focus a small one on the upper corner, float it. Switch to the tabbed layout, and there you go: tabs are over the floating window. Is this the problem you were reporting? Now I must find a solution ... Andrea
