--- Comment #1 from scionicspec...@gmail.com ---
GTK 3 has certain issues of non-compliance with freedesktop.org standards which
prevents a lot of these sorts of things from working properly in KWin. I'm not
yet certain, but I think shadows around elements such as this would face the
same issues we've seen with other elements like transparency and shadows around
client-side decorations. GTK doesn't give the information for these boundaries
in a way that reliably fits into KWin's structure.

I've been told that rewriting KWin to handle this could take months and there's
no guarantee it wouldn't break again immediately as GTK 3 handles many of these
things outside of any agreed upon standard or specification.

I'll look into it, but I think it's entirely likely we may have to accept this
as a visual limitation until the broader issues surrounding GTK 3 are resolved.
