Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported into our bug tracking system, but please feel free to report any further bugs you find. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 633620 ***
Although 633620 is visible in the screenshot, the real problem here is that Qt is drawing the menu too low; the bottom of the menu ought to be above the top of the icon. I suspect it's expecting there to be a strut there or something (in which case it would also fail if you had the message tray in an autohide gnome-panel at the bottom of the screen). So this may be NOTGNOME, but not sure right now.
Hi, is this still an issue with the message tray in GNOME Shell 3.6 and newer? Bug #692477 might be related.
