Curious little bug in Finder...

I just noticed a small little bug in the Finder.  Try this:  First, choose
"About the Finder..." under the Apple menu.  Now, from a position on the
desktop, stretch a selection box that covers the About box and an open file
window.  Notice how the lines of the selection box go over the top of the
About box, but under the open file window.  Now, go up and move the About
box (it doesn't matter how far; one pixel will do).  Try the same maneuver
again.  Now the selection box will behave properly, going under both open
windows.  (By the way, this is on 6.0.2 under MultiFinder.)

Sure, this is trivial and it will probably be irrelevant in the next few
months anyway, but hey...

-Michael
