Can't say for sure if it's a problem any more or not. I've long since given up on Unity, in no small part due to this bug. The response on the bug report did little to convince me it was worth continuing to use it either. A whole bunch of people experiencing it, and the bug just constantly being punted off to the next milestone.

See attached photograph of it occurring. I can make it happen at will: 1) Cold boot into Ubuntu. 2) Open gnome-terminal. 3) Open Firefox. 4) Press alt+tab. alt+tab window only shows Desktop and Firefox. In attached screenshot, note that gnome-terminal has a highlighted background and arrow, indicating an instance of it running, as is Firefox.
