=======
Panel disappears case
After a resolution change, the Unity panel may disappear.
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. Moving the pointer, dragging windows or generally forcing the system to redraw seems to eventually restore the display to a usable state.
