Aha: minor detail, but who knows, maybe it's helpful somehow: I just
had this happen to a bunch of terms:

Brought up several, then without thinking, switched desktops,
immediately realized what I'd done and switched back.  All but two
were missing.  I checked the open apps list and found them all still
listed;

Went back to the desktop I'd swiveled to by mistake a moment ago, and
selected one of the missing windows to see what would happen.  I was
moved back to the desktop I'd used at first, but no terms were
showing.

So, yeah, I think it's pretty certain that the terms are still
running, they're just being recorded in a way that doesn't always keep
track of their correct location on the desktop.

...Unless they're minimized, like I said; then they come back fine
when restored.

I think my next mission is to bring up all those instances again,
minimize them all, repeat the dance I did by mistake earlier, and see
what that does.
