I noticed that too. It's certainly a bug an needs to be fixed. If I 
start GWorkspace Manager and then Gorm, the Gorm menu opens but the 
GWorkspace menu is behind it (and visible because it's wider). To get 
rid of the GWorkspace menu I need to click on a file window and then on 
a Gorm window.

I'm using:
