Public bug reported:
As seen in the attached screenshot, the panel shadow in Unity (both in
11.04 and 11.10) is drawn by simply overlaying it on the desktop
background. This causes a bit of ugliness when switching desktops (see
the thumbnails in the desktop switcher in the screenshot where one can
see a dark line at the top of each desktop), or when toggling expo
(there is no panel shadow), and is a bit of a "cheap trick" [with all
due respect :)].
