Title:
  Unity spread "randomly" shuffles overlapping windows

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When the spread is used to display multiple windows of the same
  application, Unity will randomly order those windows if they overlap.

  This is annoying when trying to locate one window from a group of very
  similar windows, eg terminal windows. Since they all look the same in
  the spread I have to check each one in turn. But because Unity
  shuffles them around, it is impossible to tell which ones I have
  already checked.
