Public bug reported:

Run these commands in a command line window (bash):
#---
Xnest :1 &
sleep 2
DISPLAY=:1.0 gedit
#---

You will get a poor Xnest window with a gedit window in it, which works
perfectly.

But when moving another not-Xnest-window over it and then away again,
the parts of gedit in the Xnest window are not redrawn automatically.
only parts of it when moving or clicking around (which is normal
behavior in such application).

gedit is only an example, the problem happens with all applications, and
also with metacity loaded in Xnest. Only xlogo (and maybe other test
applications) seems to realize it has to update itself.
