Not by default it ain't :-). I don't specify anything to modify the

Actually it is, via:

FPSortWindowlistByFocus

Which you get for free if you use SloppyFocus or ClickToFocus.  If

default order, and windows move around in the list constantly.
Every time I iconify or deiconify a window, the order changes.
