Bug Description

[Impact]

After gedit grid positioning not possible to drag the window.

[Test Case]

Position gedit window with eg. ctrl-alt-num_1. Try to drag it.

[Regression Potential]

Grid plugin behavior in general.

---

After that Gedit has been resized to one of the corners (shortcuts compiz grid plugin: Ctrl+Alt+Num_1/3/7/9) it's not possible to drag the window.
Workaround: it's possible to move/drag the window again resizing the window half screen (combination "Ctrl+Super+Left/Right Arrow").

compiz (1:0.9.8.6-0ubuntu1) quantal-proposed; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
    - Enable Unredirect Fullscreen Windows by default. It seems to be
      stable enough with all the major graphics drivers now, as at Ubuntu
      12.10 (with updates). (LP: #1063690)
    - Grid: Reset the currently handled window in the GridWindow
      destructor only if the destroyed window was the handled one.
      (LP: #1048855) (LP: #1067812)
    - Grid: Set GridWindow->lastTarget to GridMaximize only if the
      window was fully maximized. (LP: #1071689)
  * Cherry-pick related fixes from upstream:
    - Fixed: unredirected fullscreen windows sliding offscreen were
      staying unredirected (always visible), because compiz thought
      they were fullscreen on a different monitor. Add extra smarts
      to tell the difference between fullscreen and offscreen.
      (LP: #1084401)
    - Add an option to specify which windows are allowed to be unredirected
      when they are fullscreen. Default: Allow unredirection on all window
      types except common video players: Totem, MPlayer, Vlc or Plugin-
      container (Flash or other nested browser windows). (LP: #1051802)
    - Add Firefox to the unredirect exceptions. (LP: #1086337)
