I don't understand, is this an objection?  It only seems to support
making the daemon frame invisible as well (i.e., the approach in my
patch).

The only disadvantage is that we still have this invisible daemon frame
which is marked as visible.  I agree it's okay to apply your patch now
and see if we get some other similar problems later.
