Screenshot of the second settings window, appearing without content

SUMMARY
Blank window for second Icons-and-Text Task Manager Settings window

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. When you have two regular Task Manager panels, each with an Icons-and-Text Task Manager widget (I have two monitors, so one on each)
2. Right click on the Icons-and-Text Task Manager on Panel 1
3. Select "Configure Icons-and-Text Task Manager..." from the context menu
4. Right click on the Icons-and-Text Task Manager on Panel 2
5. Select "Configure Icons-and-Text Task Manager..."
6. Select "Configure Icons-and-Text Task Manager..." from the context menu

OBSERVED RESULT
The second "Icons-and-Text Task Manager Settings" window appears, but instead of having window contents, it is fully transparent, allowing you to see whatever content is under the window frame.

Check the attached image to see what it looks like.

EXPECTED RESULT
The second settings window should appear normally, like the other settings window for the other widget.

I can't reproduce this on master or Fedora's 6.5. That's with the widgets on two panels on the same screen though; both config dialogs work are open and working at the same time.

Do you get any potentially relevant error messages in the system log (`journalctl --reverse`) when this happens?
