** Description changed:

  In LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment, based on Openbox), when I
  use Alt+Tab to switch between windows, each screenlet appears as an
  entry in the list. So if I have 4 screenlets I will have 4 entries.
  
  If I select one of the entries the focus will be switched to it. I
  checked that by first switching to the ClockScreenlet with Alt+Tab, then
  pressing Alt+F4, and there was the window asking me 'To quit all
  ClockScreenlet's, use 'Quit' instead. Really delete this Clock and its
  settings?'.
  
  LXDE is available on Ubuntu and Debian AFAIK, just use 'apt-get install
  lxde'.

+ [Edit]
+ Following the instructions on this thread:
+ "Screenlets hide on show desktop without compiz"
+ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/screenlets/+bug/217507
+ 
+ I added the following line to /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/screenlets/__init__.py file:
+ self.window.set_type_hint(gtk.gdk.WINDOW_TYPE_HINT_DOCK)
+ 
+ which solved the problem, and also solved the problem that the
+ screenlets disappeared on "show desktop" (this problem is also present
+ in  Openbox).
+ 
+ The windows aren't movable anymore, however.
