I am extremely surprised and disappointed at how this bug continues to
persist for so long with no hope in sight for a fix.  Window shading has
been a fundamental function present in X11 window managers for 20+
years.  This feature has critically broken in Unity somewhere between
12.04 and 14.04 yet there has been no movement on fixing this bug.

Unfortunately in my office environment our computers are standardized on
Unity which makes this even more painful on a daily basis (I run KDE at
home).

Is there any way this issue can be prioritized before more and more
releases of Ubuntu are made with this issue?

Title:
  window disappears on toggle shade

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I used Unity Tweak Tool to enable Toggle Shade using middle click.
  When I click to top of the window, it rolls up and disappears. A
  "ghost" outline of the window appears and the only way to get the
  window back is by using Alt-tab. Sometimes, when reselecting the
  window using Alt-tab, Ubuntu freezes (crashes) and an internal error
  is generated. It seems to be related to Compiz but I'm not sure. An
  error report was generated and sent.

  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (64-bit)
  Release:	14.04
  unity-tweak-tool 0.0.6ubuntu1

  I expected the window would "roll up" and I'd be left with the
  window's top bar like with previous versions of Ubuntu.
