If a long running bkup routine is running, moving to another workspace in xfce, and likely other desktop environments (used to happen on gnome with previous gtk+nim app), causes the EZ-Bkup window to be all grey/black or have strange graphical artifacts that "cover" the whole window. The proper EZ-Bkup window contents/widgets eventually come back once the Bkup routine (running of rsync) finishes.

Marking this bug for now, but i suspect it's actually a design flaw, in the sense that the running of the rsync process(es) needs to be handled differently to prevent this issue.

this is also why the Bkup's Status label is not being updated as the Routine is run.
