Bug Description
[Impact]
Metacity can crash with XError (BadRegion) sometimes when closing windows.
This, in turn, can lead gnome-session to forcefully stop the session.
[Test Case 1]
Described in comment #3.
[Test Case 2]
* Launch LibreOffice Writer.
* Add a table to a document.
* Open "Border Style" popup window from the table toolbar.
* Wait for the window to appear and then quickly close it.
* If Metacity does not crash, repeat the process several times.
[Regression Potential]
The fix is small (just adding an error trap) and will not cause any regressions.
-------
I installed mysql-workbench and gnome-session-
I am uncertain if mysql-workbench works in the default unity configuration as after installing gnome-session-
My mysql-workbench logs where not really helpfull but if you would really like them I could include them.
I also tried to compile mysql-workbench from source but the gtk2 version included with ubuntu 16.04 seems to be incompatible due to the deprecation of a data type: GdkPixBuf
ubuntu version - 16.04
package - mysql-workbench 6.3.6 amd64
what i expected - open mysql workbench
what happened - black screen and returned to login

Just installed mysql-workbench and I can not reproduce crash. Is you metacity upgraded to 1:3.18. 4-0ubuntu0. 1?
