Bug Description
For some reason Unity8 crashed on me. The applications I had open are now orphaned. They're still running but you can't get to it as it no longer shows up under the recent applications. In addition if I attempt to start the app, it fails to run or come back from orphaned state, so I have to restart.
My unity process where Unity8 died an hour or two back.

Adding a Mir task, too... I'm not sure what's really possible, but since our apps are SIGSTOP'ed, they won't die on Mir connection dying. Not sure it's possible for them to reconnect on Mir restart.
One thing we could do is on unity8 startup kill all the upstart^ Wubuntu- app-launched apps to clean the slate...
