Public bug reported: I am running a multihead system with 2 17" monitors, positioned left & right.
If I have multiple maximized windows, when a window is minimized to the taskbar and then restored - even if this is immediate - then the window does not return to the same screen. E.g. if I have a full-screen window on the left monitor, minimized it, it may reappear on the right monitor. This also occurs when switching between tasks with Alt-Tab - if I switch to an already visible window, it might instantly switch heads. This seems to require multiple maximized windows - at least two. I have not been able to determine if there's a pattern as to which screen windows will reappear on; it seems to be fairly random but there's about a 50% chance, every swap or ever minimize/maximize, that the window will reappear on the wrong monitor.
