Bug Description

What it says in the title.

This happens just about every single time I summon a dialog window inside of Lotus Notes 8.5.3. Which is often.

I have to ALT+F2/compiz-decorator *a lot*, ruining an otherwise awesome Unity 5.6 experience.

This is a substantial regression from 11.10, where this didn't ever happen (same Lotus Notes binaries). Would be great to figure out how a user space process is even able to crash compiz-decorator.
