Bug Description
I have workspace switching bound to Ctrl-Alt-[hjkl] in vi movement key style, and I have one workspace (#2 of 9) that tends to have at least five terminal windows open in it. When I move into this workspace, I will occasionally find that all the terminal windows are jammed up against the top of the screen rather than where I left them.
If I tap Alt to bring up the HUD, and then Esc to exit the HUD, they usually re-position themselves back to where they're meant to be. But if I start moving them around, they appear to remain fixed until I re-position them all.
Sometimes it seems that windows disappear altogether, and I have to use other means to find them.

First of all, please don't subscribe sysadmins to bugs like these. They have nothing to do with unity.
That said, can you please post a screencast of the issue? Right now it's tough to understand it.
