Title:
  Nautilus bookmarks folders leave permanent 'icon' on desktop

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

Status in metacity source package in Yakkety:

Bug description:
  [General information about the SRU]

  * Other commits are minor bugfixes, the full log can be seen here:

    https://git.gnome.org/browse/metacity/tree/NEWS?h=3.18.5

  [Impact]
  When using drag-and-drop, the temporary windows are unmapped but never 
destroyed. This makes the compositor still draw them, which leads to unwanted 
artifacts on desktop.

  [Test Case]
  * Try dragging a bookmark from nautilus window to desktop;
  * There should be no artifacts remaining on the desktop.

  [Regression Potential]
  The fix is adding two lines and should not cause any regressions.

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

  I'm using metacity in 16.04.

  Having opened nautilus with some folders on the left area (with favorite 
locations) if a accidentaly drag one location a permanent rectangular area with
  the name of that folder will remain on desktop in that location that the drop 
was 'made' and sits on top of every windwos sth very annoyning.

  Thanks
