[Bug 859283] [NEW] thunderbird always resets to maximized when restored

 

Public bug reported:

To reproduce:

1. Run Thunderbird and set it to non-maximized.
2. Minimize it.
3. Click on the laucher icon to restore the window.

When restored, Thunderbird is in a maximized window - but it should
retain the state it had when it was minimized.

This happens in both unity-2d on a VM and unity-3d on my main machine.

Additionally, on my unity-3d desktop, if I leave Thunderbird maximized
and then minimize/restore it, it re-appears behind the unity launcher
(which is set to never hide) instead of to the right-hand side of it.
