Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

Steps to reproduce:
* Drag a window to the right edge of the screen to vertically maximize it on that edge.
* Drag the title bar directly to the top edge without pulling it away from the right edge.
* Unmaximize the window.

Note that the window is returned to its size when it was vertically maximized, instead of its original size.

Right, it restores the most recent position of the window. Good catch.
However, this is a plugin-core interaction issue, and I'm not sure how
feasible it is to try and fix this in the grid plugin considering that
core is frozen. I can try to though.
