I accidently found this while trying to find something to do, cause I was really bored.
If you click a button or whatever in an app that uses drawers (like Transmit for example) and you activate Expos� (any of them) the window will halt where it was when it was sliding out.
Heh. :-)

Yeah this was covered in the monstrous 7B85 thread...
Another bug with it is if you do it late enough, the drawer flies into the Expos� thumbnails as a full sized drawer detached from everything.

That's kind of cool, actually. Weird bug, but cool.

Try this. Open a folder on your desktop. Drag the window around, and while dragging, push F11 to hide the desktop. Keep the mouse button down though.
The window will slide off screen, but keep dragging down and across and it will come back on screen.
Weird stuff happens after this. Mouse cursor no longer clicks where you click - instead it clicks in an area away from the mouse. You have to kill the Finder and have it restart to be able to work again.

Really? I just closed the window with cmd-W and everything was fine.

Well it did when I did it before. Now I can't get that exact bug.
However, that Window itself is now confused and has to be close with CMD-W.
Also, creating new windows in the Finder, the windows appear almost off screen and have to be moved back.
Quite a weird effect.
