You have been subscribed to a public bug: The unity UI and windows decorations dissappear when I do one of the following:
sudo restart networking or sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart. This renders me unable to focus any of the open windows with mouse/keyboard, leaving the system unusable. I have to drop to terminal (CTRL-ALT-F2) and do a sudo reboot. I am not sure what parts of the desktop are going down, so I posted this bug under ubuntu-desktop. I'd be happy to follow up with more information as needed.
