1) make one more more nodes sticky
2) go to admin/node page
3) apply sticky filter
4) NOTE: no results

the weight module converts the 'normal' sticky value of 0/1 to a float using node hooks. unfortunately these hooks aren't called when you view nodes in a list context (as on admin/node), so the list sees the 'converted to weight' sticky status, not 0/1.

Yes. It is arguable that this could be a bug with Drupal. It really should be looking for nodes where sticky > 0 rather than where sticky = 1. Dig?

I'm supposing that with the new formAPI, weight.module could maybe modify the admin/node page form adding an option to sort by weight... or to display node weights in the listing...

Hmmm... just thinking.

I'm simply hiding the 'sort by sticky' status now when weight module is enabled.
