By the way, has anyone else noticed that Leopard's implementation of 
Exposé is broken slightly compared to Tiger's? I have my middle mouse 
button set to invoke Exposé, and when I do that, drag to the window I 
want, it highlights... then probably 6 times in ten it activates a 
completely different (apparently random) window. It's worse when there 
are more windows (I typically have ten or more open after a while; 
some are Java-based apps), and I'm also using several Spaces. But I 
can't reliably set up a case that always reproduces it. It works 
correctly just often enough that I haven't dropped the habit yet.

If I can get confirmation it's not just me, I'll file a bug.
