below mean that the network was not involved, then the results below
don't seem to confirm that speculation.

Does "stay separated" mean that the separation continues forever even
after showing another buffer in the frame, splitting its root window,
demaximizing and again maximizing it?

The last two lines seem to indicate that running a GTK3 build of
26.0.50.0 on Erota gives the best results. Did you try 26.0.50.0
GTK3 builds for your Thalia and Mneme machines?
