When a window is at the edge of the screen and is resized to full screen. When you later resize to nolonger being full screen, when you try to move the weindow to a new location away from the edge of teh screen the window will snap back to the edge of the screen it was originally against when if was first sized to full screen. It happens with all the programs I have tested it with, including, but not limited to, Firefox, xterm, and mplayer. I'm using Gnome Classic.
Another issue is there is no bug reporting option under the menuing system. I had to figure outr what the bug reporting tool was then invoke the bug reporting command (ubuntu-bug) via the command line in an xterm.
Third, I should have had a screen provided by the bug reporting tool (ubuntu-bug) to enter this data. It would have made much better sense to collect the data them. As is I had to wait well over a minute for this screen to show up so I could describe the actual fault.

Another windo size snapping issue. When an mplayer window is resized off of full screen (using "f" full screen toggle command in mplayer) the window initially resizes like it did before, but then a fraction of a second later the top and bottom edges of the window snap to the top and bottom of the screen.
Anoter issue is the gnome pannels display themselves on top of the mplayer when mplayer is in full screen mode. I'm now sure this is a gnome-pannel issue rather than an mplayer one.
