"Exit Fullscreen" button doesn't disappear when I switch to workspaces

Distribution: Gentoo Linux Version: GNOME2.4.0 1.0 Gnome-Distributor: Gentoo Linux "Exit Fullscreen" button doesn't disappear when I switch to workspaces Description of Problem: When I activate Epiphany's full screen mode, an "Exit Fullscreen" button appears at the lower leftmost corner of the workspace I'm working in. Not only does this button prevent me from reading text on the browser, it also appears on every workspace I switch to, as long as Epiphany remains in "fullscreen mode", thereby also preventing me from reading text from the bottom panel or other applications. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Launch epiphany 2. epiphany menu -> view -> fullscreen 3. switch workspaces 4. observe the "Exit Fullscreen" button at the lowest leftmost corner of the workspace or the browser Actual Results: "Exit Fullscreen" button appears on every workspace I switch to. It also prevents me from reading text on in the bottom panel, in epiphany and in other applications. Expected Results: I expected the "Exit Fullscreen" button to disappear after a few seconds and only reappear if I triggered it via moving the mouse towards its direction or other keyboard manipulations. How often does this happen? Always Additional Information: Although this may be against your useability policies, It will be nice to provide an option to hide the "Exit Fullscreen" button by right clicking on it and choosing hide from an option menu. If this violates your useability policies, you may promptly discard the idea.
