Bug Description

I noticed a problem affecting some programs under 13.04

How to reproduce:
* open a window, for example file manager
* drag the window to the top of the screen so that it is maximised
* drag the window back to the desktop to un-maximise it

Expected:
* windows works as usual, title bar buttons active and window can be moved

Observed:
* window cannot be moved by dragging title bar (but Alt+ mouse drag still works)
* close, minimize and maximize buttons do not work, clicking on them has no effect
* some of the title bar functionality is still there. If I change focus to another window and then click on the affected window's title bar focus changes however buttons still do not work and the window cannot be moved.

This affects most of the applications but not all of them. So far I noticed the problem in:
firefox, nautilus, thunderbird, rhytmbox and software center

The probme does NOT affect:
gnome-terminal
