Bug 310669

Summary: Very difficult to determine that current 'maximized' window will not respond to click in corner, rather closing application behind.

Screenshot showing Ocular window. When slamming the cursor into the upper-right corner, the window _behind_ Ocular was closed.

When a window's top border is against the top of the screen and its right border is against the right side of the screen, the user expects that he can slam the mouse pointer into the upper-right corner and click to close the window. In fact, the click is passed to the window behind for some reason and _that_ window is closed, not the intended window. See screen shot which displays an ostensibly maximized window, which when clicked in the upper-right corner happened to close the application _behind_ it.

reassigning to Oxygen as that is a style issue. Plastik in master does not have round corners anymore.

Thanks, Martin. I was certain that I had seen this issue before but the Bugzilla search got bogged down and a Google search didn't turn it up. How did you find it?
