Bug Description

Pressing the 'restore' window indicator on a semi-maximised window should return the window to the restored state *and* the exact same location it was when it was last in the restored state.

To reproduce:
1. Restore a window
2. Semi-maximise the same window
3. Press the restore indicator

What currently happens: The window restores, but to a location that is different from it's previous restored location.

What should happen: The window should switch to the restored state *with the exact same size and location* it had the last time it was in the restored state.

Note that this behaviour should also apply to the vertically-maximised window state.

John, can this still be recreated on newer versions of Ubuntu? We think it's probably fixed.
