** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+ When using drag-and-drop, the temporary windows are unmapped but never
destroyed. This makes the compositor still draw them, which leads to unwanted
artifacts on desktop.
+
+ [Test Case]
+ * Try dragging a file from nautilus window to desktop;
+ * There should be no artifacts remaining on the desktop.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ The fix is adding two lines and should not cause any regressions.

I'm using metacity in 16.04.
Having opened nautilus with some folders on the left area (with favorite
locations) if a accidentaly drag one location a permanent rectangular area with
the name of that folder will remain on desktop in that location that the drop
was 'made' and sits on top of every windwos sth very annoyning.
Thanks
