Bug description:
  Some apps like "glxgears -fullscreen" do not use the full screen under
  Compiz/Unity. However Metacity and Gnome Shell do successfully enter
  full screen in this case.

  It seems some apps try to enter full screen using just window size
  hints and not the fullscreen hint. I believe this is not uncommon,
  especially for non-gtk apps.
