My wife let me test release 4.4 on her windows 10 laptop tonight.  The
problem with the locked subwindow in the price database did not exist.  Not
sure about linux installs.

I also could not duplicate the transparency issue with account selection,
again I am not sure if it is the same in linux.

I did discover some other differences which would require More testing to
see if i need to change my procedures to get certain results, if even
possible.
