Title:
  metacity leaves "dead windows" that float on top of other windows

Status in “metacity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: metacity

  Metacity sometimes leaves "dead windows" that cannot be closed, and
  float above all other windows, obscuring some view. See attachment for
  a screenshot example (gnome menu dead window that can't be closed or
  removed). Killing metacity removes the "dead windows".
