Updated original report to remove reference to xorg-edgers PPA. Even with stock raring, gnome-shell works just fine (been using it for over a day now) while unity is unusable.
** Description changed: Hitting the "Windows" key to bring up the dash corrupts the screen from where everything goes downhill. See attached screenshot for example after a few window launches, dash enable/disable, etc. Logging in with gnome-shell doesn't show these artifacts. - - I'm use the xorg-edgers PPA now with a 3.9 mainline kernel to try and - debug the problem.
