I agree. In fact the bug is strangely specific to the plot immediately
following the reset. After that it recovers its position in the
multiplot layout.

So with that in mind, here is a work-around to use right now.
Requires gnuplot version 5.0 or 5.2

set multiplot layout 2,2
plot 1
reset; set multiplot next; set multiplot previous
plot 2
reset; set multiplot next; set multiplot previous
plot 3
reset; set multiplot next; set multiplot previous
plot 4
unset multiplot
