I don't see that here (yet).
But there is a potential race when adjusting the z-order and the triangle could potentially paint its few frames before the spinner is (re)placed over it.
Can we file that as a separate bug? I think we need new Mir APIs to control the Z-order directly (or "layers") to avoid it completely.
