I experienced this as well and found it highly annoying. However when I enabled compositing via Appearances, the problem went away. Compiz must be doing something to disallow this. This may be a difference between people experiencing and not experiencing this bug. I would agree this is a bug and should be fixed for non-composited desktops as well.
