Appears to be fixed as of 4.10.0-19-generic. I'm relieved!

I just tried the nouveau driver in 4.9.0-11-generic. Now while it didn't
flicker, what it did do was exhibit the very start of the problem, which
manifests as subtle vertical bars in the top panel's dark brown bar. So
it may not be an Nvidia problem, but a kernel problem, that may have
been fixed
Running the mainline kernel 4.10-rc2 and the nouveau driver on 17.04
means the bug does not appear; it does appear with the Nvidia 375 driver
in the regular 17.04 kernel. The 4.10-rc2 kernel is significant because
in the 4.9 and earlier kernels, the mouse cursor does not move from the
top left
Taking a full-screen screenshot of the problematic view (i.e. with a
maximized terminal window full of text), and then viewing the screenshot
at full screen, is displayed fine.
