facts that contradict your statement.

there you go again, bringing in facts to ruin a good argument.

could it be tempered? tempered glass almost always has a very slight bow in it.

Na, but I work with glasses, some do flow at lower temperatures, esp. gallium/lanthinum/sulphide stuff we make....

Last I heard there were several known examples of window panes thicker at the top.

Perhaps the powner's manual indicated that they sould be rotated periodically, like tires.

any chance of gluing it flat to something stiffer and flatter than it is?

Not sure. I didn't know this.
