I have noticed a sporadic quirk in the MultiFinder/QuickKeys interface.
Sometimes, when I am in a program (for instance, VersaTerm) and I hit
a file quickkey for, say, Stuffit, the finder layer will come forward
and then stuffit will be launched.  I assume this is the way that
quickeys works in MF.  But occasionally, I find that the finder layer
comes forward, but the finder windows are not drawn/refreshed.  They remain
blank until I click in them once, then they redraw and Stuffit is loaded.
I am not sure that stuffit may not have been loading in the state just 
mentioned, but the window in back is not drawn (stuffit info window).

Does anyone know what this occurrance is or why it happens?  It seems to
be harmless enough.
