The central (and possibly only) element of this bug as it is described
by Raphael Camus is the absence of window borders--windows cannot be
resized, moved, or maximized/minimized. That indicates that the problem
is with the window manager. The problem occurs in GNOME Classic, which
uses metacity as its window manager, and it does not occur in 3D Unity,
which uses compiz as its window manager. So this is a bug in metacity.
If an affected system has the same problem in Unity 2D, which also uses
metacity, and does not have the problem in GNOME (not GNOME Classic, but
GNOME, installable via the package called gnome-shell), which also uses
compiz, that would provide further confirmation.

Valezan's problem description sounds completely different from this.
Therefore, I am assuming it is a different problem. So in addition to
changing the affected package from gnome-panel to metacity, I am also
setting this bug back from Confirmed to New.

@Valezan, if you believe you really are experiencing this bug, please
explain.

@Raphael Camus, if you are sure this bug should have Confirmed status,
then please feel free to set it back to Confirmed, but please explain in
detail why you think it should have that status.
