You have been subscribed to a public bug: This happens to me (I think) on every boot, and has done for some time (not just in Precise). I believe it also happens between Ubuntu version - e.g. when dual booting a flash of oneiric is seen in precise.
To reproduce: 1. Open a window (firefox, totem, etc) 2. Restart Ubuntu (don't close the window) 3. During bootup, watch carefully. During the process, the window that was open during shutdown flashes up on the screen for a second or so.
