The lines on the right-hand-side aren't being drawn anymore, and nautilus draws the background at startup again, so this is mostly resolved now. I do see the partial line drawn, though, but only on one of my user logins, so maybe there's a persistent setting causing this?

This line is drawn irrespective of which background is chosen. I don't get this line in my yakkety VirtualBox VM, though. * It draws a grey vertical line down the right-hand side of the screen, unless you focus on the background by clicking on it, in which case the line disappears. This happens both on my laptop and also in my yakkety VirtualBox VM. * It is also doubling up icons for files in ~/Desktop (eg in the attached screenshot you can see "kernel bugs" etc are displayed twice). Only one of the two file icons responds to mouse clicks, though. If I kill nautilus the artefacts go away, which is why I assume it's a nautilus issue, along with the fact it only started happening since nautilus 3.20 got installed.
