Title:
  Snapped windows are misplaced upon switching workspaces

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I can't reproduce this bug reliably. Nevertheless it happens a lot. It
  happens mostly after few hours of work in the Unity interface.

  For reproducing this bug some ingredients are needed:

  WHAT YOU NEED:

  - You should have enabled workspaces (System Settings > Appearance > Behavior > Enable workspaces)
  - You should have a few windows snapped to different corners of the desktop (Press Ctrl+Super+Left/Right or Alt+Ctrl+Num (keypad) on different windows and on different workspaces )

  WHAT YOU SHOULD DO:

  Since I don't know exactly how to reproduce this bug, I can't tell you exactly what you should do. This bug shows itself after some time.
  It particularly happens when trying to switch to a window that is on a different workspace by pressing Super+{1..9} shortcut, or by pressing Super+S shortcut.

  WHAT HAPPENS:

  - Windows jump to other workspaces (other than one they were originally snapped to)
  Or
  - Windows are slightly misplaced from the snapping position, so that the edges of the window enter the neighboring workspace.
