It is better to have no shadow at all for these windows rather than an incorrect rectangular shadow. [ Test Case ] C code for a test case is attached to this bug. It needs to be compiled and run to demonstrate the problem and solution. [ Regression Potential ] Any code change to the Unity desktop shell could introduce a new crash or hang. A possible regression in this particular fix is a lack of shadows when expected, or a non-standard non-rectangular window still having a shadow as before. [ Additional Info ] The Unity 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 regression.
