This is something that is going to keep happening. The only way to
fix it would be to rename it to comp.gui.misc (or something equally
appropriate, just anything without "windows" in it).

Is it worthwhile doing this? Too much hassle to change the whole
comp.windows... hierarchy? Maybe someone wants to start the ball
rolling, as I have no idea what needs to be done to change the name.
