This is great news! Thanks Per Heldal for letting us know.

The new binary driver won't be issued as a SRU (a new beta driver is hardly a minimal update, especially due to its closed source nature), so I expect this fix to land in Jaunty. There may be the possibility of a backport for Hardy and Intrepid users, but we need to wait for the driver to appear in Jaunty first. Until then, Hardy and Intrepid users can either continue with the titlebar workarounds, or can do a manual install of the new driver. Remember that this is not recommended or supported by Ubuntu, and additionally, 180.06 is a beta driver.

I'm closing the compiz and human-theme tasks since we now know they are not part of the problem. Thanks again to everyone for their help with this bug, and thanks to Nvidia for the fix :-)
