Yes, it's the same issue.
But please note: there is only *one* issue described in this bug -- presumably
Unity having a bad internal representation of Firefox's window's state (it
thinks that it's on a different workspace, but that's not the case).

** Description changed:
From time to time (I don't know when, it seems to happen at random
intervals), Unity starts getting confused about Firefox's window state.
Below are the symptoms:-
- 1. Firefox, although maximized, no longer has its menu showing up when the
pointer is over the Unity panel. Likewise, its window title no longer appears
in the panel.
+ 1. Firefox, although maximized, no longer has its menu showing up when the
pointer is over the Unity panel. Likewise, its window title no longer appears
in the panel. When the Firefox window is focused and maximized, the panel is
blank where the window buttons and menu or title should be, whether or not the
pointer is hovering on the panel).
2. The Firefox icon on the Unity launcher shows a filled triangle on the
right side, but an empty triangle on the left side, which seems to indicate
that Firefox's window is focused, although not on the current workspace.
3. Alt+Tab orders Firefox's window to the back of the list
(alt_tab_bias_viewport = true).
4. Alt+Grave over Firefox's icon causes Compiz to segfault (I should have
gotten a stack trace; I'll do that next time).
5. Selecting Firefox's icon from Alt+Tab does nothing.
6. Clicking Firefox's launcher in the sidebar does nothing.
And here's the weird part: Other application switchers in Compiz, e.g.
Ring switcher, and Scale, work as expected. Scale even properly detects
the workspace that Firefox is on, judging from the [N] suffix to Firefox
window's title.
