In addition to all the maddening window activation problems* Mac OS

Just now, I was in Terminal.app, I click on the dock icon for Xcode,
and I saw something flash out of the corner of my eye. I think it
was the project window (I use the condensed view) disappearing. The
menu bar still belonged to Terminal.app. One source file is still
open. If I click (with another app frontmost) in the window anywhere
but the title bar, the click is ignored. If I click in the title
bar, the window comes forward, but the adornment is not redrawn to
indicate an active window. The previously-active window appears
properly deactivated.
No matter how I attempt to activate Xcode, its menu bar never
returns, and I can't quit the app.
Anyone else seeing this?
I had this happen to me the other day, but the menu bar actually
disappeared altogether, and I had to restart the machine.
* I'm sure you've all seen it: you click in another window, and the
click is seemingly ignored; two windows will be active at the same
time (in the same or different apps); the non-frontmost window will
still have keyboard focus (same or different apps)...
Yes, but you get used to first clicking in the desktop and then in the
window you want to activate after a while - it just becomes second
nature.
