Public bug reported:
1. Bug: Many Gtk3 Softwares don't show their border of window, based on Ubuntu
Light-theme. (See attachment Bug1)
sudo apt-get install gnome-session-flashback gnome-system-monitor
gedit light-theme
[Logout and login to Gnome Flashback Session (Metacity)]
Open nautilus window browser,
Open gnome-system-monitor, then open "Preference" item from menu.
Open gedit, then open "Preference" item from menu.
..
Non of these window have border, which is extremely unfit under
metacity compositing mode (metacity -c --replace).
Note: If I install an old version - metacity 3.14 (from Ubuntu 15.04
repository), it does have this problem. So it's metacity 3.18 that cause those
border miss.
2. Bug: metacity are supposed to quit if a new window-manager replace it.
Run: metacity -c --replace
Then run: metacity -c --replace
The previous metacity process doesn't quit, which both metacity
3.14 (from ubuntu vivid) and marco (from ubuntu xenial) doesn't happen.
3. Bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/1538111
This bug still not fixed. There is a small possiblity that closing a
certain window will make all of other windows disappear, nothing would do
anymore expect killing metacity and run metacity again. Then disappearred
windows display again!
I only found out that if I frequently plugin and plugout external screen
monitor, the possiblity of getting stuck into this bug becomes larger, and
"close a window" operation is key that might cause this bug.
