Hello Danny,
The first thing you have to know is that I don't use desktop effects
(beryl, compiz or the one which is in the menu of ubuntu : system, pref,
desktop effects). Each time this bug happens, it was without any desktop
effects activated.
Is your Ubuntu a fresh 7.04 install, or an upgrade?
Did you carry over a profile (/home directory) from a previous
installation?
I always install GNU/Linux "freshly", and don't do any OS upgrade.
Each time this bug happens, it was a fresh install with a new user and a
new /home created during install process (and it just happens for the
first created user).
I've too noticed that it happens more often when the menu bar is not
extended and just after the screen resolution is increased.
Again, when it happened for the first time, it was just after a screen
resolution increase (via syst, pref, screen resolution). The first thing
I've done is Ctrl + Alt + Backspace (Gnome was out of control), then
Ctrl + Alt + F1 (console), login with first user parameters (username
and password) and delete .gconf, .gconfd, .nautilus and .metacity in
the /home of the first user and then, everything was ok when login to
Gnome desktop until I anew reduce and increase the screen resolution.
Okay, I have created a new user via "Users and Groups" and followed
your steps, excepted for desktop effects enabled. I'm sorry, I am shy of
activating desktop effects.
So, nothing happens, everything is ok (User : test, /home/test, uid
and gid = 1001).

Beg your pardon if I'm not very precise, but it's the first time I
report a bug on Launchpad and if my english "written" is horrible (I'm
French so ... ;-)
