This might actually be an evolution of #1485330 becoming worse.

Here's a 100% reproducible set of steps which will exhibit the symptoms
described above AND those in #1485330:

- have exactly 3 (three) windows of the same program, e.g. three terminal windows
- follow the steps 1-6 described above. Be "A" the window that first got focused at step 4. Be "B" the window that you picked at step 6
- repeat steps 5-6 and pick the same window B again.

=> this time the window B will become foreground and focused, but with
no title bar and no borders

Title:
  [REGRESSION] cannot switch to a given window after showing desktop

Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is a regression which has appeared either in 14.10 or 15.04, as
  it didn't exist in 14.04.

  This is 100% systematically reproducible for me.

  1. have a few windows of the same program open, for example, three terminal windows
  2. make sure all of them are visible and one is focused
  3. hit Ctrl+Super+D so that all windows are hidden and the desktop is shown
  4. click on the terminal icon (or the icon of whatever example program we are testing the issue against) on the Launcher
  => one of the windows becomes visible, foreground and focused, as expected. But suppose you want to switch to one of the other ones
  5. click on the launcher icon again
  6. pick any window other than the one that was focused in the previous step

  Expected result: that window should be brought to front and given
  focus

  Observed result:
  the window does the animation as if it was going to be brought to front, but then vanishes, and is not visible at all
  the previous window is still on the foreground but no longer focused.
  No visible window is focused at all.
