I have written a patch that employs the only known/reasonable workaround
so far for the issue within xorg:
https://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/commit/?id=e56e8699e271cea209f5b283421952d9035ad2b5
This commit could be pulled into Ubuntu at very low risk.
** Also affects: xfce4-panel (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided

Window buttons are not clickable at the top of the screen

Bug description:
This bug affects greybird-gtk-theme and xfce4-panel in Xubuntu Cosmic.
With Cosmic, it is not possible to click on the window buttons after
moving the mouse cursor to the top of the screen. Unlike similar bugs,
no amount of moving left or right triggers the hover event or the
ability to click on the window button.
With Adwaita and Numix, we see the same issues we see elsewhere, where
the buttons can sometimes be clicked, but also have issue with the
topmost part of the screen.
