This bug simply needs to be taken seriously. From what I have read this issue mostly effects users of Nvidia's propriatery drivers. I use MythTV which means I need to leave my computer on all the time to record TV shows. This means daily I must execute "Alt+F2" then run "unity --replace" to reduce the rediculous memory footprint of "compiz" and to a lesser degree "unity-panel-service". The result is that using multiple workspaces becomes almost useless as all running apps are collapsed into the workspace where you ran the "unity --replace".

I surely hope this is fixed in 12.04, considering that Unity 3D is the default desktop and this is a LTS release.
