Title:
  Maximized Window's Title Bar Does Not Merge into Menu Bar after
  Performing Super+W (window spread) filtering

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  A maximized application's title bar does not merge into the menu bar
  once a user has performed Super + W (window slide). Note that if one
  does not do Super+E, then the bars to merge together. However, once
  Super+E has been performed, this bug persists for the lifetime of the
  windowed application. If the application is restarted after doing
  Super+E, then the bug is gone. Thus, it seems like Super+E introduces
  this bug for the lifetime of the windowed application.

  Expected behavior: Maximized window's title bar is merged into menu bar.
  Observed: Does not occur after Super+W is performed.

  [ Test Case ]

  (1) Open one or more Terminals, place one in maximized mode (eg. by using control-super-up or clicking the embiggen button).
  (2) use super-W to enter the spread mode
  (3) select the maximized terminal window
  (4) lookee lookee, separate title bars without the fix!

  [ Regression Potential ]

  Any change to the Unity desktop shell could potentially introduce a
  new crash or hangup.

  [ Additional Info ]

  The Unity SRU fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry-picked from upstream
  Unity where it has been a part of the Ubuntu "Vivid Vervet" dev
  release for some time now and has demonstrated no regressions.
