This is not a bug. The same problem occurs in every DE because opencv's
imshow gives the windows the same default position. If you use
cv::moveWindow you can change the window position in imshow... If you
think this shouldn't happen you should fill a bug report in python-
opencv.

Title:
  "smart" window placement puts windows on top of each other while there
  is plenty of space

Status in Compiz:
  Invalid
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Consider the following program that opens 5 small windows:

    #!/usr/bin/python
    import cv2
    import numpy as np
    for i in range(5):
        cv2.imshow(str(i), np.random.random_integers(0,255,(64,128,3)).astype(np.uint8))
    cv2.waitKey(-1)

  (needs python-opencv and python-numpy)

  When I run it, all 5 windows appear exactly on top of each other. My
  desktop is stretched over two monitors. Left monitor has nothing on
  it, right one has emacs not maximized, the 5 windows pop up on top
  left of the left screen.

  I expect that the windows would appear in a way that they do not
  overlap, since there is plenty of space on both screens for that.
