Public bug reported:
Sometimes unity silently disappears (still displayed on screen, but
cannot be iinteracted with, and tty `pidof unity` finds no running
process). When restarting unity with `unity --replace`, the following
happens:
- all windows are moved to the wrong virtual desktop, which requires
significant effort to get back to a productive setup
- several application windows (and the application processes) have
become missing, usually the browser and Virtualbox (with the current
work completely lost)
Expected behavior:
a) The window manager never crashes, or b) The window manager is restarted, all
application windows are not negatively affected.
