This is by design, David, though possibly only temporarily. The fix caused regressions since a recent update of unity and I had to revert it. I'm not sure yet if it has to stay like this. Gerd was working on making onbord single instance, this will possibly mitigate this problem too. Starting a second instance of onboard will then unhide the existing one. Don't download a snapshot right now though, we're (I'm) still debugging other issues.
