** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: compiz
  
  Hello! On Natty, if both “Window decorations” and “Blur” plugins are
  enabled, and the settings for blur include “Alpha blur”, the windows
  where alpha blur applies have messed up shadows. (I use “normal” as the
  window filter for alpha blur; examples of transparent areas are the
  gnome terminal in some profiles, and unfocused window title bars, and
  some popups.)
  
  First  of all, the shadowed areas are also blured, which I believe to be
  wrong behavior. (Only translucent part of “logical” windows should be
  blured, not effects like shadow.)
  
  Second, the shadow becomes “messy”: it’s a dynamic bug, the exact
  effects vary when moving windows around, including darkening or
  lightening of the shadow, and various lines and areas of varying
  opacity. I’m including a screenshot with an example.
  
+ (CCSM shows “/usr/bin/compiz-decorator” as the “Command” in the window
+ decorations plugin, by the way.)
