 I'm using r41759

 how to reproduce the bug:
 Open MediaPlayer, Open the playlist of the mediaplayer. Now stack that two
 windows together. Make the playlist-window the active window. Now make the
 window bigger and smaller till you see two windows instead of one. That
 means, the window below is sometimes bigger than the window above and so
 you see sometimes two windows instead of one.

 Idea to solve that bug:
 For example I can imagine, that you could introduce a new option to the
 bwindow to be able to the window to the state "show just title bar". And
 then when you stack windows set all windows to "show just title bar"
 except the active window. And when you change to another window in the
 stack, then tell that window how much to resize, then make it "fully
 visible" and  make it the active window, and then set the other window,
 which was the active window, to "show just title bar" and so on...
 I guess in current situation all windows in stack get the information to
 resize when the active window resizes.

 That bug doesnt happen all the time. I guess it's because the windows in
 that case of the mediaplayer have different borders.
 In a stack with all windows having the same border, it seems it works
 fine.
