Ops... forgot to mention I was using the 'Snapping Windows' plugin and not the the 'Wobbly Windows' plugin., the 'Wobbly Windows' plugin doesn't have this problem.

All of the windows have this problem with the 'Snapping Windows' plugin enabled, not just a particular window. I tried the command `xprop | grep _NET_WM_FRAME_EXTENTS` on windows when the Snapping Windows' plugin was enabled and got nothing, even if the window was in the messed up snapping place.

With the 'Wobbly Windows' plugin there isn't a pull apart snap at all. i.e. when windows are overlapping there isn't a snap when a window is pulled apart so that it isn't overlapping anymore. There's only a snap for when windows are moved closer together, even though it might be better if it could do both ways.

Both plugins are missing same side to same side snaps. I suppose there could be ties as to which one is closer to snap to, in that case snap the window to the direction that would be closer to where it's heading. (if there's a tie, and there isn't any motion one way or the other don't snap at all)

I can put the extra snapping options down as a new feature request.

(Another Idea: Move, Snap, and Wobble could be put together as one plugin)
