The window, in which I moved my mouse pointer around, had working
highlighting that was not cleared.

Most of the time both issues are present.  That is, in one window
highlighting is present but not cleared whereas in another one there is
no highlighting at all.

That is from the very same process that exposed the issue but then
recovered somehow.
