I was going to post on this problem, however, duckduckgo found this
bug report for me. Thought I'd post anyway in case it helps another.
The problem was that when restoring a session, all the windows were showing up on the first workspace. This brought a bit of a consternation since my thoughts are organized using multiple terminals spread across available workspaces. I have to admit I only noticed the problem on my main machine after getting rid of Terminal-0.4.8 (which was starting to cause me some issues, understandably, since I am mostly at current), however I have seen this on other 14.1 installs. ... a clean system, huh, what a novel idea. Enough rambling.
Using
xfce4-terminal-0.6.3 (post bug closing) with the source slackbuild has apparently solved my issue. Below is (a minor) patch to the slackbuild to enable it to detect the .bz2 file download.
Code:

+++ xfce4-terminal.SlackBuild 2014-11-06 22:02:27.000000000 -0700

I'll mark this as solved, but will wait a day or two in case someone knows any issues with 0.6.3.
