After Maverick Install, how do I get windows from randomly locking to the upper left of the screen?

This has only began to pop up since installing Mavericks. Seemingly at random, windows (Finder, Safari, etc) will lock their positions to the upper left of the screen. What's worse is that it is always half on the screen and half off. There is no title bar to move the window, but I can still three-finger move it from another area of window. Unfortunately, when I place the window where I want it to be, it immediately snaps back to its original screwed up position.

Any insights?

..... thank you for being patient while Apple investigates this issue. As we discussed on the phone, Apple is fully aware of what you are experiencing, and the solution will likely come in the form of a Software Update in the future. My sincere apologies for the situation you find yourself in. Take care.

It also happens when you switch to another user and back. Mostly happens to Firefox and/or Safari here. Quite annoying, glad it has been put into the bug report system.

10.9.2 seems to have fixed this issue (at least for me).
