Title:
  Panel(?) contains no icons, username or cog

Status in unity-2d package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  All icons, the clock, my username and the cog system menu icon had disappeared from the top edge menu bar cum system tray thingy (panel?). Without access to the system menu via the cog, it's not clear  how to log out or lock the screen, therefore I had to leave my machine in an insecure state when I needed to leave my desk to attend a meeting.
  I ran "unity --reset" from a terminal and got the output below, including the suggestion "you should probably file a bug about this", hence this bug. When "unity --reset" was done, I had two identical parallel rows of icons down the left hand edge of the screen.
  Perhaps there are at least three bugs here: 1. the original loss of the icons from the top of the screen, 2. the compiz unhandled ConfigureNotify, and 3. the duplication of icons down the left hand edge of the screen. If you think I should file separate bugs for 2 (against compiz) and 3, please say so.
