> Bug description:
>   [Impact]
>   If the user drags and hold a file over a running application in the
> Launcher, all the windows of that application should be shown with the
> spread. The user should then be able to drag and drop the file in a windows
> in the spread to load the file into that specific window.
>
>   [Test Case]
>   1) Open two windows instances of the same application (say firefox)
>   2) Drag a file from the file-manager or the desktop and hover the
> firefox icon
>   3) After one second the firefox icon is hovered, the spread will occur
>   4) You should be able to hover one of the firefox windows and it should
>      show a spinner, after 750ms (by default) the hovered windows should
> be focused
>      and raised
>   5) You should now be able to drop the content you're dragging (if the
> selected
>      application supports that content).
>
>   [Regression Potential]
>   This codepath was mostly disabled in the current compiz and unity code
> because it was buggy, so the regression potential is very low, although it
> might happen that, if some race-condition happens, when closing the scale
> the launcher might be still painted as if it would be in scale mode
> (desaturated) even if it's not the case anymore.
