That window was a bugfix for "the keyboard becomes disabled and stops
working entirely" (arguably an X11 protocol bug that this "no keyboard
for you!" state exists, but it does; when X11 has the focus window set
to None, not even the global keybindings work - i.e. without a mouse you
can't do _anything_ to fix it, since you can't alt+tab or anything).
So, I don't think you want us to get rid of it, unless we're going to
put paragraph 1194.21c ahead of workingness.
My memory was that we only use the invisible window when no user-visible
window was available to become focused, but Elijah has a notoriously
better memory and is saying otherwise.
