Thunderbird Window Mostly Blacked Out After Wake From Suspend

[Jason Stephenson]

On Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with mir, the Thunderbird window is sometimes mostly blacked out after waking my laptop from sleep.

This happens randomly, and sometimes temporarily corrects itself when switching applications or virtual desktops, but not very often. Quitting and restarting the application does fix the issue.

I'm not entirely certain that is is a Thunderbird bug and not a bug in mir, but Thunderbird seems to be the only application where this happens.

Thunderbird version is 1:45.5.1+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1
Processor is Intel® Core™ i5-4200M CPU @ 2.50GHz × 4
Graphics is Intel Haswell

I've attached a screenshot.

I've upgraded to 18.04, plus gotten a new laptop in the meantime. This no longer happens.
