Public bug reported: Most of the time Unity works as expected, that is, it displays the topmost window's title. Sometimes, however, and in my experience, only when there are no more windows after closing the last one, the title stays there. I've attached a screen shot of this bug, in which one can see that I had closed QtCreator, and instead of Ubuntu Desktop, QtCreator is still showed as current window title (although it's greyed out). I'm using the 'Show the menus for a window : in the window's title bar' appearance option.
