Foobar 1.5 produces strange hidden window object that catches my focus

Am using NVDA, which is where the following log output is from. When the majority of windows and dialogs on my system disappear, sometimes whether they had popped up in-app or I had alt+tabbed to them and closed them, my keyboard focus seems to land on this strange object, rather than returning to the last window that had focus before I went to the dialog. For reference, my foobar is fully hidden in the system tray, or it should be. From examining the properties NVDA exposes I have determined that it is foobar that is generating this object. The following is log output generated by NVDA for examination of the navigator object, some of it is internal like the class MRO but the role, state, window class name, and other such attributes might be useful to you. Note that the way it indicates strings is with u'text' because it's python 2.7, and None is python's equivalent of null.
