Notification takes over corner upon resuming from screensaver

Description

Ordinarily, (if you have them set to pop up in the bottom left corner), the notifications pop up just above the Start menu. However, if a notification is popping up as I am returning from screensaver, it appears in front of the Start menu. When the notification disappears, a transparent version of it remains overlayed with the Start menu. (Hopefully that makes sense, but if it doesn't, don't worry -- I will post a screenshot next time it happens you can see what I mean.)

I should offer the disclaimer that I am using a WindowBlinds? theme, so it is quite possible that it is not a Guifications bug itself, but that, or even something else. (For example, I have the Guifications 'active' setting set to 'no'; I haven't tried it with active on.) So if anyone else has noticed this, please reply with your experiences.

Like I said, I will post a screenshot the next time it happens.

There, I uploaded a screenshot. Note the bottom left corner, where the notification has become overlayed with the Start menu. It stays like this until I log in again.

thats crazy...

However, I have no idea how to fix it... If the notification window is gone, then I'm fairly confident that it's not guifications thats making it persistent. But it could causing it due to some crazy timing issue between windowblinds and the normal windows desktop.

Pleast try to reproduce while using one of the builtin windows themes (ie with WindowBlinds? not running).
