That is what I am pointing to, it does not do that what you described,
so descriptions misses the point. They don't apply.
When I have this window:
+---------------------+
| |
| |
| |
| |
+---------------------+
| |
| |
| |
| |
|---------------------|
+--------------------+
Then upon completion it becomes this:
+---------------------+
| |
+---------------------+
| |
+---------------------+
| |
| completion here |
| |
| |
| |
| |
|---------------------|
+---------------------+
So the third window appears there. It is not replacement. I would
rather prefer replacement than third window jerking other two up and
rendering them not usable. But that is not subject of this bug report.

Thank you, I will try but not ready. My version is days old, need to
upgrade to new version to test the patch.
