Wow!
What a cool capability!

I'll work on it.... but will rename existing window.Disable() to window.CleanupLinux() ;-)

Thank you for taking the time to fill out the form so completely.

It's greatly appreciated and ensures you're problem received priority treatment (it helps having code too like you posted!)

Yes, I'm quite amazed by this, too 😄

I tried the ssame on another Ubuntu 16.04 machine and also tried python 3.6.6 but it's the same issue. I'm surprised that this is even possible, but have no idea how to investigate this any further.
