+We shouldn't switch to another light wm when we can just change the theme, but it would be nice if 
+we could find the cause for this, as nothing has changed in the icewm or default theme packages 
+since Mageia 2, which didn't have this issue, so the source of the issue is likely elsewhere, and 
+who knows what else it could affect at some point.  What a strange bug :O
