This sounds like (a cleaner example of) the problems I noticed with Grace.
In this case, subwindows opened from menu options in Grace could be
separately docked, but, if you forgot you docked them and opened them
again from Grace's menu, then the dock still thought they were in there.
This suggests any window that can "undock itself" in some way will have
this problem. I didn't file a bug report on the Grace behaviour, because
I wasn't sure what the right behaviour should be, this vnc example sounds
like a better place to start.
(My original Grace related posting should be in the archive I think...)
