3) What you expected to happen:

upon restoring a maximized application, and then moving the application
window to a grid on the left or right part of the screen using the
<alt>+<super>+left/right keybinding, i should be able to restore the
window to a pre-grid size if dragged away from the gridded position.

4) What happened instead:

window collapses to minimal size after dragging away application window
from gridded position. this happens with almost all applications. i have
also tried enabling "snap windows back to original size" from the CCSM
grid-plugin settings, with no success.

thanks

i'v attached a screencast video of the problem.
