I'm not saying it doesn't but it is not correct.  It's one of those, I don't
know why it works but it does kinds of things and I think we need to find the
correct solution instead.

It shouldn't, I wrote the code I should know (though it took me a bit
to remember:).  If it does then that's the bug, since the show/hide functions
use the shown_alloc to figure out where the panel should be when fully shown
to avoid just these sorts of problems.

Hmm, then that's the problem, the hidden pos is given by another function
(get_hidden_pos I believe).

I'll look at that then.
