A couple of additions to Adrien's information:

1) Searching using "site:lists.gnucash.org" will also include all the 
documentation and other gnucash resources. This may be useful, of course! But 
if you want *just* the list archives, use "site:lists.gnucash.org/pipermail"

2) Unfortunately, Alt-Tab won't always help in Windows, since many of Gnucash's 
windows don't show on the list. Windows that don't show on the list include the 
new account window and the new security window, which are two of the windows in 
question. These are modal dialogs, so it is vital for the on screen window 
order to be maintained, so that the active dialog remain on top. I'm not sure 
the exact steps I've done to muddle up this order, but I know I have seen it 
before. Thankfully, the cascade windows option *does* work for these windows. 
I've never heard of that one!
