This has been an issue for a while. Somewhere there is a massive Unity
bug that includes this and many other graphical "annoyances" that was
created early in the 13.10 development cycle, which I cannot for the
life of me find right now. I'll keep digging around, but if anyone can
remember what became of it that would be most helpful. If it has
vanished, it might be nice to once again pull any persistent small
graphical issues that were either missed in 13.10, or that have cropped
up since.

Title:
  Screen artifacts in the dash

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When opening a Dash, since 12.04 I got artifacts. I can't predict
  them, but I see them sometimes, when I:

  1) Open the Dash
  2) hover over the "Application" category heading

  I have attached a screenshot showing the artifacts. They always look
  the same!
