Why do GUIs jump around like a demented terrier while starting up? Am I on my own?

Re: even worse...

I used to update Firefox a *lot* by accident. Typing in a form, Firefox pops the "update" dialog box, with "Update Now..." as the default button, next character I type is a space, bang!

And of course for web sites, the solution for buttons moving around is for them to effing well bloody fucking declare the GDMF(1) size of all the GDMF(2) bitmap objects inside the img tags. And to declare how big tables are and how wide the columns are BEFORE sending down the first TR tag. Geez!

(1) Very rude FLA, equivalent to "deity-cursed incestuous".

(2) I'm not going to explain it again.
