If this is considered as xrdp's bug, the 3rd option should be best way to 
fully fix this issue. But if it's considered as GNOME's bug, probably it 
should be patched to make GNOME 3 support non-compositing 
environment and this may better then modifying xrdp because this is 
a GNOME 3 ONLY issue and not xrdp's fault. Xrdp works well with other
desktop environments.
