On my own PC I turned the effect off by System Settings -> Desktop -> All Effects -> Turn off "Sliding popups" and stopped bothering about it not working properly (haven't got around on reporting it either). I have seen this at least in F12 (nVidia 9800 GT and a FX 5200 / proprietary nvidia drivers), F13 (nVidia 9800 GT / proprietary drivers), F12 with some sort of onboard ATI card and the Mesa experimental drivers.
