  This bug is now just about failing to restore the original window size
  (width is the main problem). The issue with the mouse pointer separating
  from the title bar is bug 201681.
  
  ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
  In Ubuntu 11.04 when you snapped a window to the left/right screen edges and later removed it, it returned to it's original size.
  In Ubuntu 11.10 it stays in the size it got when it snapped to the left/right screen edges. It should restore to it's original size like it did in Ubuntu 11.04, there is no point in it staying in the size it got when snapped, it's just awkward.
  
  ---------------------------------
  
  window management - Restoring a semi-maximised window by dragging the
  title bar downwards restores the window into the wrong shape and
  position
  
  To Reproduce:
  1. Semi-maximise a window
  2. Try to restore the window by dragging the title bar of the semi-maximised window downwards
  
- What currently incorrectly happens:
- - The window shifts to the restored state but remains the same size and shape as when it was semi-maximised.  The window also gets disconnected from the pointer and shifts downwards.  See attached screencast "semimaximise_restore_issue.ogv" for a demonstration.
+ ----What currently incorrectly happens----
  
- What should happen:
- - When a window is restored it should return to the exact same size and shape as it was before it was semi-maximised or maximised.
- - If a window is restored by dragging the title bar downwards with the pointer, after the window snaps out of the maximsed state, the window title bar should remain locked to the pointer until the drag is released.
- - If a window is restored by clicking the 'restore' window decoration or by using a keyboard shortcut, the window should be restored to the exact position it was before it was maximised or semi-maximised
+ - The window shifts to the restored state but remains the same size and
+ shape as when it was semi-maximised.  The window also gets disconnected
+ from the pointer and shifts downwards.  See attached screencast
+ "semimaximise_restore_issue.ogv" for a demonstration.
+ 
+ - Note this also happens when a semi-maximised window is restored by
+ clicking on the 'restore' window decoration button in the window title
+ bar
