Public bug reported:

Fullscreen windows seem to arbitrarily switch which screen they sit on,
though I have found a way to replicate reliably.

My configuration is:

Laptop + external (larger) screen, with external screen automatically
set up as primary display by Nvidia settings autodetection.

I have chrome open with Twitter installed as a unity webapp and
therefore appearing in the message notification menu. I also have
workspaces enabled.

Chrome is in my top-left workspace, fullscreen on my laptop display. If
I'm working on my top right workspace and click the Twitter icon in the
message notification menu, and switch back to top-left, Chrome has
jumped to my external display (still full-screen) and now shows the
Twitter tab.

Other unity webapps open already perform in the same way, though if I'm
on the same workspace as Chrome, the window doesn't switch display.
