You have been subscribed to a public bug:

We have had reports going back to 13.10 that gnome-shell extensions are
disabled after restart (LP: #1236749), I've only just managed to
reproduce this and have discovered that gnome-session is not shutting
down cleanly.

Basically, X gets shutdown, which causes gnome-shell to abort, following
this gnome-session tries to respawn gnome-shell which fails and due to
this failure disables all shell extensions. I don't know enough about
upstart to really understand what is going on but it appears this also
affects unity and it just hasnt been noticed since there are probably no
such side-effects happening there.

Filing this against upstart since this is not reproducible when using
systemd init, though it may well be a bug in gnome-session, but related
to upstart user sessions.
