Attached debdiff between trusty-updates and SRU.

** Description changed:

- I suppose this could be seen as a matter of design opinion but, in my
- opinion, it's incredibly ugly.  To reproduce, launch a whole bunch (10,
- 20, a lot) of windows on workspace 2, and position them on or near the
- right edge.  Then switch to workspace 1, and observe the massive black
- blob on the left of the screen.  This really doesn't make a whole lot of
- sense visually, and it's pretty ugly, IMO.
+ [ Impact ]

+ Window shadows can be seen on adjacent workspaces.
