I installed Metacity 1:3.18.4-0ubuntu0.2 and mysql-workbench now fully
works again.

I would like to be able to help more when encountering bugs and even help 
fixing them.
As you can see from my stacktrace I am not really up to skill yet and was 
hoping one of you could supply me with information about: getting all the 
packages with debug symbols and properly making gdb write stacktraces to log 
files. But please feel free to ignore this if you find it will take to much of 
your time.

Thanks for repairing this package which I use in my daily live.

Title:
  workbench crashes metacity on ubuntu 16.04

Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in metacity source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in metacity source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Metacity can crash with XError (BadRegion) sometimes when closing windows.

  This, in turn, can lead gnome-session to forcefully stop the session.

  [Test Case 1]
  Described in comment #3.

  [Test Case 2]
  * Launch LibreOffice Writer.
  * Add a table to a document.
  * Open "Border Style" popup window from the table toolbar.
  * Wait for the window to appear and then quickly close it.
  * If Metacity does not crash, repeat the process several times.

  [Regression Potential]
  The fix is small (just adding an error trap) and will not cause any 
regressions.

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  I installed mysql-workbench and gnome-session-flashback on ubuntu
  16.04 and whenever I start mysql-workbench metacity or X11 but I think
  metacity crashes and I am returned to the login screen after a few
  seconds.

  I am uncertain if mysql-workbench works in the default unity
  configuration as after installing gnome-session-flashback I can no
  longer login to the default unity experience.

  My mysql-workbench logs where not really helpfull but if you would
  really like them I could include them.

  I also tried to compile mysql-workbench from source but the gtk2
  version included with ubuntu 16.04 seems to be incompatible due to the
  deprecation of a data type: GdkPixBuf

  ubuntu version - 16.04
  package - mysql-workbench 6.3.6 amd64
  what i expected - open mysql workbench
  what happened - black screen and returned to login
