[Impact]
* VirtualBox and other multi-monitor full-screen applications using the freedesktop.org standard are not displayed in a usable way when running multi-monitor full-screen in Unity without this fix.
* The bug makes the above set-up unusable. Low regression potential as this is an obvious fix for something which works correctly in other major window managers which were tested, so applications are unlikely to depend on the bug.
* The proposed fix corrects an obviously incorrect use of an internal programming interface.
[Test Case]
* detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug
* these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected
package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes
the problem.
[Regression Potential]
* I do not see a likelihood of regressions, as the fix makes Unity correctly implement a standard which other window managers already correctly implement. Please feel free to discuss.
* I believe that any theoretical regressions would involve applications running in full-screen mode.
[Other Info]
* I think this process is very heavyweight for a simple bug fix which addresses what should be a very obvious programming mistake to any of your developers who cares to review it. This does not increase my interest in contributing to Ubuntu in future.
