The bug is still present un Trusty 14.04: windows with their borders
close to the edge of the screen tend to make an  uncommanded partial
invasion of neighbouring workspaces after switching to a different
workspace.  When returning to the original workspace, the window is no
longer in the position where it was placed.  If the window is
subsequently returned to its proper location, the same shift occurs on
the next workspace switch.

Title:
  Non-maximized windows which sit on the border of a workspace move when
  called

Status in “compiz-plugins-main” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  As suggested in bug #755842, I'm filling a new bug repport. I have
  installed the latest update to compiz-plugins-man
  (1:0.9.7.0~bzr19-0ubuntu10.1), but for me the problem remains: when
  clicking on a launcher icon of some programs that are not in the
  current workspace, they get moved so that part of them is on a current
  workspace. It works like this every time for certain programs.

  My test case is this:

  1. Firefox on workspace 1, Double commander nad K3B on workspace 2 (K3B is positioned in lower right corner, but it is a few pixels away from both edges), Synaptic on workspace 3 (also, its edge is a few pixels away from border), as presented in Positions1.jpg
  2. Move to workspace 1, click on K3B icon -> K3B gets moved like on Positions2.jpg
  3. Move to workspace 1, click on Synaptic icon -> Synaptic gets moved like on Positions3.jpg

  Same thing happens with LibreOffice applications. Strangely, with
  Double commander I have never experienced this.
