Bug#247252: kwin: random buttons missing from titlebar



Package: kwin
Version: 4:3.2.2-1
Severity: normal

Some applications do not display a maximize button on their
titlebars.  Some examples are 'wish' and 'gnome-xbill'.

Some applications display the maximize button but not the minimize button:
xload, xclock.

Other applications display all three min/max/close buttons:  konsole, 
kcontrol, pan, xterm.

When the button is missing, the capability that goes with it is missing
too.  For example it is not possible to iconify an xload window.

This is a regression from kwin 3.1.x, which didn't seem to randomly grant
some windows their full set of titlebar buttons while denying others.
Generally the three min/max/close options were available for most
application windows.

Changing titlebar button placement via "Window decorations" under
"Appearance and Themes" doesn't seem to help.  The problem occurs
with several different window decoration styles (BII, Keramik, Quartz,
ModSystem...it's probably the same behavior regardless of style).
