Curious. I spent some time going through the manuals to see if there
were any special features to background layers and could not see
anything about this. (Obviously I may have missed the relevant passage
but I could not find any index to help.)
I even experimented by deleting the background layer to see what
happened and then recreating it: nowhere was there any flag or setting
to control this behaviour.
At least I now know what not to do. Thanks.
