LC Toolbar

[J. Landman Gay]

I get the same thing, but it hasn't bothered me. If LC is frontmost and 
you click on the desktop, the toolbar remains as you describe. But if 
you click on the Finder icon in the dock, or use Cmd-tab to cycle to 
another app, the toolbar is moved behind the frontmost app. Since I use 
Cmd-tab a lot, I've hardly noticed.

Basically any command the brings an app completely to the front will 
remove the toolbar from view. If you use OS X's ability to intersperse 
app windows, then the toolbar remains since it's a window like any other.
