Bug Description
Every Unity session after certain (yet unknown) events such applications as GIMP and Java applets (javaws) start not occurring into the taskbar. Precisely what happens: when I run GIMP, its icon is shown in the taskbar for a while and then disappears forever. Consequently, there is no way to access such windows from GUI if one minimizes them. Once happened in a single session, these apps do not appear in the taskbar until reboot.
I have encountered this bug three times already, but concrete causes are yet to be discovered.
