When multiple non-maximised windows of the same program are open and one clicks on the icon of the program in the launcher, they are all shown one next to each other but in the wrong order: windows that are in the top-left corner can be shown in the right bottom position or on the top bottom corner.

This makes very hard to switch between similarly looking windows like terminals.

How to reproduce:

* launch four or so terminal windows;
* write something different on each of them to be able to tell them apart;
* move each window to a different corner, possibly using the auto-resizing feature of Unity;
* click on the terminal icon in the launcher;
* many terminal windows are displayed;
* choose the thumbnail in the right-top corner;
* very likely a window that was in another corner has been selected;
* try again various time and realize how confusing this all is.

The thing that is more strange is that you have to move the mouse pointer to a certain point (let's say "right-top"), then you see the window has appeared far away (let's say "bottom-left") so you have to move your mouse again.
