I don't know why __NSTextViewCompletionWindow is a window. I suppose if it's the only weird window that ever shows up I could just exclude it, but I am pretty sure there are other weird windows in more complex applications — things like search boxes that stay created but not visible, etc.

Here are the properties of the TextEdit's __NSTextViewCompletionWindow I ran across:
	bounds (1209, 444, 1348, 465)  [on a MacBook Pro with high-resolution screen)
	closable, floating, miniaturizable, miniaturized, modal, resizable, titled, visible, and zoomable are all false
	zoomed is true
	it has no document
Maybe that's enough information for someone to guess what this is.
