Yes - worry - I should have mentioned it.

OK - so probably coincidence.  I hate that because you can never be sure when 
something will cause it to happen again :-)

I should be able to get to it later today.  I'll do that and report back.

The reasons for trying another theme were

1 - I kept closing the wrong window because I couldn't see enough difference 
between focused and non-focused windows.

2 - the default settings make for tiny type and my aging eyes couldn't cope.  
Maybe I should have just increased the font settings.

I know the first point has been discussed elsewhere already so there's not 
point in setting up a bug report for it, I think.
