Bug description:
  [Test Case]

  1. Start Steam on Ubuntu
     -> Notice that the Steam window has a custom, non-Ubuntu border, window buttons and decorations
  2. Maximize the Steam window
  3. Minimize the Steam window
  4. Un-minimize the Steam window
  5. Restore the Steam window
     -> Make sure that Steam does not have Ubuntu window decorations, but looks as it looked in step 1.

  [Regression Potential]

  No real regression potential - in really really impossible conditions
  is the lack of window decorations for selected, standard windows.

  Original description:

  A Steam Linux user reported this problem.

  He created a video which shows a sequence of minimizes and maximizes.
  Initially the Steam client window does not have decoration.  This is
  expected as Steam sets _MOTIF_WM_HINTS to disable decorations and
  never changes them again.  As the mins and maxes are performed
  _MOTIF_WM_HINTS gets changed and decorations are enabled.  Checking
  xprop confirms that the window properties actually are different.  As
  far as I can tell the Steam client is not doing this, so it seems like
  Unity is?
