You are right.
The icon is stuck on the screen.
In most cases the icon returns to its positions if I click on the empty space.

But in some cases, the buttons seems to be totally (not frozen) but hollow and transparent. All mouse-clicks pass through to the window beneath. However the desktop and its windows and all keystrokes work fine and normally.

See the attached picture. I have marked the text by dragging along the icons, like the buttons weren't there.

BTW: When I grab and move a button/icon rather quickly up & down, the harddrive is spinning heavily and CPU usage for compiz pops up to 25% (ref: top). Harddrive keeps spinning a few seconds after the icon has landed. But this is not a real life problem.
