It's not that we need to slow it down - slowing something down is
never an acceptable solution to a race. We are missing some kind of
synchronisation somewhere, or perhaps we are doing something funny to
the window immediately after we try and dock it, which causes it to
undock. You need to trace exactly what happens to that window after
it's docked.
