Binary package hint: compiz

I've noticed this behavior in Firefox and Songbird, though it may happen elsewhere.

Dialog boxes that resize themselves upon button clicks shift a little bit down and to the right when they do. To reproduce this, in Firefox with several open tabs, click "Bookmarks," "Bookmark All Tabs," then click the down-arrow next to the folder name.

Replacing Compiz with Metacity eliminates this problem. It also doesn't seem to be a problem with the "Place Windows" plugin, as disabling that has no effect.

In Songbird this can be observed when adding or removing criteria from Smart Playlists.

Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope
Compiz 0.8.2-0ubuntu8.1
Firefox 3.5 rc3
Songbird 1.1.2, Build 1042
