Ah oh, I'm sorry. The only russian I've been getting lately was
coming from mozilla, and its using UTF8 encoding producing very
nice results. There indeed appears to be a bug: I never
initialize localized text handling :) Fixed it. Hopefully.
It too late into night to properly test it, so it still may not
work, but I'll get back to it.

Fixed this one. Thanks!

Yeah, expected behaviour - by moving sticky window off current
viewport - you are effectively moving it off visible screen for
good, as sticky window treat virtual coordinates as real
coordinates. I'm not sure if this is the bug or feature, and
more inclined to think that it indeed is a feature. I can hardly
think of a reason for anybody to go about moving sticky windows
off curent viewport, while it is concievable that someone would
want to hide window from desktop by moving it off-screen.
Thanks again.
Sasha.
