Description:
Without the package gnome-shell-extensions installed the background on dual monitor systems sometimes does not load and there are drawing artifacts of windows created there.

Forums discussion: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1339062
Upstream report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=709313

I wanted to report this here in case this is indeed a packaging bug, but I'm not sure yet. I also don't know why this gets fixed by installing the gnome-shell-extensions package. I don't see anything suspicious in the package's file list. Please feel free to close this report if you are sure this issue is entirely upstream.

Additional info:
* gnome-shell 3.10.1-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Uninstall the package gnome-shell-extensions
2. Make sure there is more than one monitor attached
3. Log out of Gnome and login again
This task depends upon

The ticket system here really is confusing, no chance to see this task in the gnome-shell task list if gnome-shell is not part of the title (and one cannot edit the title).

Anyway, this issue had also been reported at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/37412?project=1&cat[0]=2&string=gnome-shell, please close this one.
