One oddity of low window levels is that below some level the windows become immune to Exposé, i.e. they stay in place. I think this happens because the Finder's desktop icons are in fact windows at a very low level, and Exposé needs to leave them alone.

This can be a useful effect if you want to create things like sticky notes on the desktop, or other stuff that can easily be exposed by pressing F11.
