Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz-gnome

Use the middle or right mouse buttons to maximize a gnome-terminal window either vertically or horizontally. Now click on the desktop or another window. Notice the gnome-terminal window shrinks by 2-4 pixels in the direction it was maximized.

If you do this with a "full" terminal window (one that has text on every line) and vertically maximize then the vertical shrinkage on loss of focus also causes the terminal text to jump as it has to shrink by a whole line of text to adjust.

This happens with unity-window-decorator which is part of compiz-gnome, so I'm not yet entirely sure whether to log this under Unity.
