Bug Description

Sometimes I notice that I can't click on buttons in applications. I notice this
most often in Synaptic, and have since the first Ubuntu version, though I just
saw it in Network Settings too. When this happens, I can make the button
clickable again by clicking on the window title bar.

I can't reproduce this reliably, and I don't have any idea what component might
be causing it. Maybe it's a metacity thing. I've never seen it on other distros.
