Well, it starts to get kind of pesky at that point. What I do to
keep the screen where it should be is set up a input device handler
and trap AmigaM/N keypresses. 

I wonder if its possible to have a semi-fake screen structure that can't
be dragged, then supplant its copper list with your own. That would
be a slightly easier fix to the AmigaM/N problem. Has anyone tried it?
