Title:
  Compiz blur plugin mirrors transparent backgrounds vertically

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The Compiz "blur" plugin in 11.10 seems to have been changed in a way
  so to use vertically mirrored screen image to produce the blurred
  image.

  This affects window shadows, see screenshots at
  http://askubuntu.com/questions/68926/ugly-shadows-around-applications

  This also happens with some windows which employ compositing to draw
  transparent backgrounds. When "alpha_blur" setting of the blur plugin
  is enabled, this leads to mirrored background.

  The mirroring doesn't occur when blur plugin is disabled. The
  mirroring didn't ever happen before 11.10.
