I've been noticing this on a few different PC's too. 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.

With kind regards,
