Control: -1 severity important

Hola Micha vor dem Berge!

> Severity: Grave

I use cinnamon 2.2 daily, on three different computers, with weird monitor
setups (for example, right now I'm on a laptop with DisplayPort -> VGA adapter,
using the external monitor) and I don't experience this bug.

I understand that the bug can be annoying for those that do experience it, and
I'm sorry for that, but that doesn't mean the program is unusable for everyone.
There's even a workaround (ugly, yes, but at least it exists).  So, no, this
doesn't warrant a "grave" severity (particularly not at this point in the
release, when grave means it will get removed from Jessie).

I read that bug and it looks like a big mess of probably different issues, as
people are saying that they experience different symptoms under different
circumstances.

Can you elaborate on this? I'd be interested in being able to easily reproduce
the bug myself.
