Fortunately, jcristau gave a response on the upstream bug.  He indicates
that BadWindow is indeed an appropriate response from the xserver in
this case, and is returned when the Window parameter passed to
XQueryTree is invalid.  I've requested that the XQueryTree man page be
updated with this info, and we can consider the libx11 task resolved
once that is completed.

So it's sounding sort of like firefox just has a race condition going on
or something.


** Changed in: libx11 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Triaged
