Public bug reported:

So far i have noticed 2 bugs in the display ever since the latest system
update

1) First, I usually use Alt + F4 to close windows, and Alt + Tab to switch 
between windows, and i do this a lot so i suspect this for being whats causing 
the following ..
After manipulating windows for a while,  i was last on firefox and when i 
pressed Alt + F4 to close the window the top of firefox disappeared but the the 
"page" itself stayed visible
Say i was on google, i still can see the search box and everything but all my 
firefox toolbars are not there, and the top menu (File Edit ... is not there)
I face the same issue later but this time it was with Rythmbox 
Another time, i closed the lid of my laptop (and i have it to suspend after i 
do) . When i came back and opened it, no login screen appeared as usually, so i 
was in my session without any login and the rythmbox window was "half visible" 
as described above
Ctrl  + Alt + Del won't work , escape does nothing, the menu (File Edit ...) 
appeared but clicking anything on it won't do anything...

2) Second bug i am not sure what its cause is but has to do with mouse and 
display
Say there is a dialog with buttons on it, hovering buttons will usually make 
them shine and clicking them performs an action..
Ok sometimes, but more frequently then the previous issue, i get a dialog but 
hovering the buttons or clicking them has no effect, as if the buttons were not 
there...
Observing closely, i noticed that if i put my cursor a little bit far then 
where the button is (sometimes outside the dialog itself) the button shines, as 
if my mouse was over it
Furthermore, i maximized/minimized the window (depending on the case) and the 
display was working propperly

I hope this helps you debug this, if you need more details i will be
glad to provide them
