Public bug reported:

When I want to return to my desktop from a black screensaver, sometimes,
when I nudge the mouse, I get a partial desktop as captured in the
attached photo.

This problem is intermittent.

Note that there is an element of a security threat in this bug.  Any
stranger at my PC can detect my launcher apps as well as which app is
open and has focus.

In the example, Chromium browser is open and has focus.

Fortunately, the bug masks the display of the browser window.
