Steps to reproduce:
1- Open the Monitors control panel.
2- Choose a different resolution and orientation (we use 640x480 upside down).
3- Press Apply.
4- Select "Restore original configuration" to return to how things were originally.

Expected result:
- Resolution restores, screen rebuilds and is visually identical to how it was before the resolution changed.

Actual result:
- Display is corrupted in various ways. On some systems only the background or parts of it are visible. On others, there's some misplacement of elements. Some others show garbling on all or parts of the screen. On all systems, moving the pointer, dragging windows or generally forcing the system to redraw seems to eventually restore the display to a usable state.
