FS#821 - xcompmgr and awesome menus
User who did this - Roman Kosenko (kite)

Uhm, we already do some painting after mapping.
Only first item through item_enter (3.4 branch).
I didn't look deeply, but I cannot see where you paint after mapping.
And if I add some painting - this problem become solved.
It also can be solved by marking window as damaged in xcompmgr during mapping 
(don't wait for XDamageNotify).
I've tried Unagi (compositing manager which is implemented using xcb), it seems 
like it have this problem too.

Do we really need and want that just to paper over xcompmgr bugs? IMHO xcompmgr 
should (optionally) just not add shadows to override-redirect windows.
xcompmgr is very buggy thing, but this is not xcompmgr bug.
It have optionally check for _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE=_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK and 
not for all override-redirect windows (because in this case we lost shadows 
under menus).
Also I forgot that according EWMH 
(http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-1.4.html#id2551529):
"This hint SHOULD also be set for override-redirect windows to allow compositing 
managers to apply consistent decorations to menus, tooltips etc."
So, this is awesome bug. :)
