Btw, I'm not 100% certain of this. Somebody should double-check me. Maybe
there are cases where we want more than two windows alive. And maybe there
aren't even that, and we can always make do with just one.
So I will _not_ guarantee that "at least two pack windows" is necessarily
the right answer. The windowing code was mostly other people doing it. I
think Shawn and Nico.
