Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

gnome-panel is always visible when switching any app to full-screen mode via the metacity shortcut key or window menu. The exception to this seems to be applications that handle their own full-screen mode (such as Epiphany and Totem). This may well be a metacity bug, but I don't know.

Odd note, it's the top panel that remains visible, but the lower panel disappears correctly.

This only happens in edgy.

That was probably one of the bugs fixed with that upload:

"metacity (1:2.15.34-0ubuntu1) edgy; urgency=low
  * New upstream release:
    - allow moving maximized windows between xineramas again
    - fix an uninitialized-usage bug with net_wm_user_time that breaks focus
      with new windows
    - re-fix accessibility events for the alt-tab popup
    - update the close pixmap to fit better with the other pixmaps of the menu
    - fix several fullscreen handling bugs I introduced, causing fullscreen
      windows to not actually be shown fullscreen
..."

Marking as fixed, feel free to reopen if you still have the issue with that version of the package
