Public bug reported:

There are various problems with the GUI at the windows level. Problems
1. windows come up blank - sometimes even menus come up blank, happens
in 1 out of 20 window approximately. 2. Windows appear but typing does
not work. Sometimes if you click on something in the window the queued
typing will occur. 3. Windows appear but some mouse clicks don't work,
so do. 4. Window appears but on scrolling some part of the window does
not scroll.  If you move the window to the right or left it start to
