Bug Description

Binary package hint: shotwell

On Natty, windows contain a resize grip in the lower right-hand corner. (This is actually a GTK 3 element which has been backported to GTK 2 in Natty). Because Shotwell has no status bar, this resize grip overlaps some visual elements. In particular, in the main window the resize grip overlaps the icon to the right of the zoom slider, and when a photo is viewed in full-window mode the grip overlaps the right arrow button. This might not be an issue if the resize grip were drawn with a transparent background, but it seems to draw over everything in its bounding box. (There's been some more discussion of the resize grip at bug 704105).

I recommend that Ubuntu disable the resize grip in the Shotwell packaging for Natty. You should be able to do this by calling gtk_window_set_has_resize_grip() shortly after the main Shotwell window is created, which should be easy to find in the code.
