Why?  The purpose of a backdrop window is so you can have somthing
in teh background.  Backdrop windows can't be depth-aranged.
BTW, is there anyway to get intuition to send MOUSEUP-MOUSEDOWN
events when a user clicks on the back/front gadgets instead of
depth-aranging?  Or do you have to roll your own?
