This won't fix the problem, but it may make it easier to live with.  Under
1.2, most system requesters allow keyboard shortcuts.  Left-Amiga-V is retry,
and Left-Amiga-B is cancel.  These will probably work even if you can't see
the workbench screen, since the requesters are automatically selected.  I
think this may be mentioned somewhere in the Enhancer manual, but I don't
know where (I don't have it with me).  Hope it helps.
