I'm not sure if this is the same issue, but when I right click on the desktop in Xorg 2:1.10.0-0ubuntu2 I often get this result:

As you can see, parts of the window and terminal aren't redrawn (and they probably shouldn't be, the menu never covered the window nor the panel). The artifacts persists until I force the panel and window to redraw by moving them around or switching workspace. It seems to happen more often when I right click in the lower left corner of the desktop.

I also often get some strange results when a window is set to "always on top" and "visible on all workspaces" and I switch workspace:

I have an Intel 945GM GPU and the patch fixed a few other artifacts. The problem completely disappears when I start a compositing manager.
