- Yes, I realised this last night after thinking about it a bit more.
- I suppose it makes sense for it to work this way, although if you
- select one of the widgets that came from the widget tree displayed
- for xfonstsel you get a "This widget no longer exists in the client"
- error, which could be confusing. The moral seems to be "DON'T USE
- EDITRES ON IT'S OWN WINDOW"
