Thank you very much for your illuminating documentation.

I also found that this feature can be used to re-order a cluttered WB window.
Move all icons out of the window on the screen. "Extend Select" all of them
and drag them to their parent icon (usually the disk). This will produce
a window with no icons overlapping but of course not necessarily in your
preferred arrangement.
