Sorry I could not reply earlier.

This is unfortunate. I hope with FreeBSD 12.1 things could get better,
but I fear that the KPI will not change.

I'm using head and did not see any issue, this corroborates what Olivier

I could anyway file a bug report in XFCE bugzilla just to track the
issue. Could you provide a screenshot of the broken display?
