I agree with Marvin, this bug is not a duplicate of bug #876573 since
the current bug does not depend on the windows being of the same
application or not.

I do experience similar problems with 11.10 using Unity and Compiz:

* all my title bars always have the same color, never showing whether
they are focused or not.  With one exception: Firefox is the only window
that properly shows when it is unfocused.

* the title text is not updated when the application asks for it.  Examples:
    - the "*" indicating that a document edited in Gimp or Gedit is modified 
does not appear unless the window is resized (forcing a redraw).
    - In the SDL applications I develop, I have to set the caption of the 
window before I open the window otherwise the title text never shows (until 
resized).
    - Exception: changing tabs in Firefox changes the title bar text of the 
Firefox window.

* the minimize/maximize/close buttons do not highlight when the mouse is
over it, and aren't pressed when I click on them.  The bug is only
visual, because they do their job.   Here again, Firefox is an
exception.

All these points are about windows that are not maximized.  The title
text and the buttons in maximized windows work as expected, always.

I do not know why Firefox is so special for me.  The fact that it starts
maximized is not the reason: other applications that start maximized
have the problems I describe when I un-maximize them.

Do you have the same problems with the title bar buttons, Marvin ?

Other possibly related bugs :
* 770283 but this is not a duplicate either since losing the focus does not 
redraw anything for me.
* 257391 which has been around since 2008.
