Bug Description

See bug #758398

Some clients may refuse to map the window until they receive a message from the window manager indicating
the estimated frame extents of the window. Due to a change in the reparenting code in compiz, unreparented
windows never have their decorations updated, and in turn, will never have their frame extents updated.

Compiz should always set the _NET_FRAME_EXTENTS property on the window if a client requested an estimate
of the frame extents.

This still seems to happen. Can someone confirm, or is it just my code?

No visible progress since Sam claimed the bug so let's not pretend it's in progress right now.
