When I open the reconcile function, the window briefly flashes on the primary display and then disappears.  It is being displayed somewhere off the displays.   If I launch Mission Control, I can see both windows and they reposition as a pair, which is quite different from other apps windows.

It took me quite a while the first time to figure out how to coerce the reconcile window into the visible universe.  If I move the windows independently in Mission Control, the reconcile window remains invisible.
