Strange window behaviors in Leopard

I'm not seeing that specifically, but I am seeing Finder windows do a
thing I'm calling "double clutching". When opening a folder in list
view (happens to be an alias to a work folder on the desktop) it plots
the contents window and very quickly replots it in the same place,
giving it kind of a jerky appearance like when a low flying airplane
passes between your dish and the satellite, which is NOT the place it
is supposed to be, AND it is not the size it is supposed to be, but IS
more or less in the center of the screen in the somewhat default
position you describe. Closing the window and opening the alias again
opens the window in the proper location at the proper size. It's an
odd little occurrence.
I haven't messed with this enough to figure out a causal relationship.
