Public bug reported:

Nothing but the wallpaper is visible after logging in. The Unity panel
is gone, as is the top panel. I have enabled nVidia proprietary drivers.
The only changes to the appearance settings that I have made are to
enable wobbly windows and the static application switcher, and replace
the Ambiance icon theme with the Faenza icons with gnome-tweak-tool.

Pressing Ctl-Alt-T does not open up a terminal, but I can right click on
the desktop to change the wallpaper. In the wallpaper dialog, I notice
that the window decorations are gone, so metacity is not running.
Dropping into a terminal with Atl-F3 and typing in "sudo service lightdm
restart" allows me to log in again, at which point the panels load
normally and metacity is again active.
