I guess the hot plug events for adding and removing external monitors are a really complicated issue. In my case, I have two monitors connected to my computer. Turning them off causes a hot plug event saying that first one and then the other have gone away. Turning them on again causes windows to turn up in different places as they were before, which is of course not the expected behavior.

Moving the window when un-maximazing is obviously wrong, but my point is that the solution as to what to do when monitors appear or go away is not trivial at all.
