[gtk-window-decorator] Semi-maximized windows have no shadow or frame

This may be fixed with a fix for bug 904746.

Assigning this to Sam, since I'm told that gtk-window-decorator is meant to replace unity-window-decorator in precise. So this bug will become important soon.

In the latest build, this bug seems to be only fixed partially. Semi-maximized windows have shadows, but do not have borders/frames around them. This is not super visible, but still present. Attaching screenshot.

 Merged into lp:compiz-core at revision 3005

Tested on lp:compiz-core revision 3013 - the bug is indeed fixed and does not appear anymore. Semi-maximized windows now have both shadows and borders. Good work!

This bug was fixed in the package compiz - 1:0.9.7.0+bzr3035-0ubuntu1
