I have a Tab Strip component with the Selected Tab property bound to `{[System]Client/User/CurrentWindow}`. When I’m resizing the window, the Selected Tab property turns to `''` instead of the window currently open.

I’m not sure what’s the most helpful way for me to proceed in order to get help. I’ve enabled logging on the tab strip _mouseReleased_ and _propertyChange_. The log below is from me clicking on a tab in the Tab Strip component, then immediately after there is a deselection…but I didn’t click anything! This occurs occasionally, not every time. It also occurs occasionally when resizing the window.
