** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  Many users will put different windows in different workspaces for better work flow.  If a user connects and/or disconnects an external monitor or projector, all of these windows will be put in the first workspace.  Having to go back and move all of the windows back to their workspaces is very frustrating and time consuming.
  
  [Test Case]
  #. Open some applications in different workspaces.
  #. Plug in an external monitor.
  
  [Regression Potential]
- None identified.
+ Very low possibility that a window still ends up in the wrong workspace.
  
  --------------------------------------------
  
  Original description:
  well, i plug in my external screen.
  
  expected behaviour would be, if all of my windows would stay in the
  workspaces i aligned them to, and if they'd be on the same screen i had
  them in the first place.
  
  unfortunatly in unity, if i plug-in (or plug-off) my external screen the
  windows are all around, but not where i'd expect them to be (namely in
  the same place they were before). so i always have to toggle expo-mode
  and re-align all of my windows.
