Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Window shadows can be seen on adjacent workspaces.

  [ Test Case ]

  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.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  Any code change to the Unity desktop shell could potentially introduce
  a new crash or lockup.

  [ Other Info ]

  The SRU fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry-picked from Ubuntu 14.10
  where it has been in production use for some time without apparent
  regression.
