These screenshots definitely help to understand the issue.
I can reproduce this by running an xterm in a x2go session on Ubuntu 16.04 to localhost in the default setting. Running FF45ESR and FF53ESR with a clean profile with about:mozilla shows the issue.
I have done some tests with the current nx development version. If you only use nxagent (as Xnest replacement) the rendering works. But as soon as the nx compression libs come into play the problem shows. Using nopack make the issue go away for me.
Update: For convenience and to ensure we do not lose them I cloned those images right into the issue.
