Well, there's an easy answer here: don't log in to X as root. In
particular, don't run large programs and environments with
questionable behaviour, like GNOME and Enlightenment, when you're
root. Do all of your work as a normal user, and use su or sudo to
occasionally become root when absolutely necessary.

Maybe this is an Enlightenment bug? It wouldn't be the first. I like
Sawfish as a window manager these days; it has GNOME support, seems to
be both reasonably featureful and configurable, and doesn't scream
"bloat!" the same way Enlightenment does.
