Title:
  Window behaves as if title bar didn't exist

Status in Unity:
  Expired
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  The Update Manager has popped up informing me of the new available updates. The program works and responds to clicks as expected.
  However, the title bar of the window (which looks normal) behaves as if it didn't exist: it is completely transparent to clicks. When I click on any part of the title bar, I actually click on whatever is behind it.

  Other winows work fine. I _don't_ think this systematically happens
  with Update Manager, it's the first time I observe it.

  Please don't underestimate the importance of this bug. Whenever some
  visible object is transparent to clicks, it is something very
  dangerous which can have disastrous consequences (imagine there's a
  "delete all" confirmation button behind it).

  Also note that whether or not this is caused by an error in Update
  Manager (whose window is behaving badly), there's something wrong in
  the window system (I'm not sure whether it's Unity, Xorg, Compiz or
  who responsible for this) if such a thing merely _can_ happen.
