Also, The Active Jobs window does not seem to ever update / refresh itself.

I accidentally printed the same document two times. My printer wasn't plugged in so I just went to the Active Jobs window and clicked the [X] button to delete the "Pending" entry. It did nothing. I plugged in my printer and both jobs printed. Unexpectedly, both jobs are still listed in Active Jobs. The top entry still says "Processing" and the second entry still says "Pending".
