Title:
  Persistent compositing glitches

Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: metacity

  Occasionally, a small area of the screen will be taken up by a patch
  of grey which is drop-shadowed like a window and always sits on top of
  other windows, but which persists across workspaces and is invisible
  to xprop. It's often been triggered by transient objects (menus and
  tooltips), but doesn't always take up the entire area of the menu.
  Less often, I'll be left with pieces of an application window.

  I'm using metacity with compositing enabled.  The only way I've found
  to remove the glitches is to interrupt the compositor -- either by
  turning it off or by restarting the window manager.

  I've included a screenshot of the latest occurrence.
