Bug Description

If it's relevant I have all LIM settings at default (enabled, show on mouse over).

When changing workspaces, the controls of a maximised unfocused window sometimes get rendered behind the controls of that window.

1. Maximise a window (I use firefox)
2. Focus another window on the same workspace.
3. Switch workspaces, wait for the title to change, switch back.
4. The window title is behind the controls

See attached screenshot

I confirm that this happens also in 14.04. It doesn't work by clicking on the "Workspace Switcher", but by switching workspaces with keyboard (CTRL + ALT + Arrow Key), and to a workspace where there is nothing.
