 > Cool, removing self.window.set_override_redirect(True) and the Frame
 palettes are showing up reliably :-) There is a new side effect
 unfortunately, in that now the frame is often completely blank of any icon
 toolbuttons when first displayed. Steps to reproduce:
 >
 > 1) Whack you mouse cursor into a corner and don't move it (I can't use
 Sugar keyboard shortcut so don't know if it shows the issue)
 > 2) If icons show up correctly (less than 50% for me), move mouse cursor
 back out of frame so it auto hides, and try step 1 again
 > 3) Once you see empty dark grey frame, you can trigger icon redraw by
 moving the cursor to where a toolbutton should be, or moving out of the
 frame will momentarily show the tool buttons just before the frame auto
 hides.

 can you reproduce issue w/ removed
 {{{self.window.set_override_redirect(True)}}} and applied
