Bug Description

Week 33 - Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal with ppa:timo-jyrinki/prerelease (On machines with Intel, Nvidia, Radeon GPU)
Test case ID - Can 30
Issue:- The icons which are next to BFB (i.e. any app icon which is below BFB icon on launcher) and workspace switcher icon (i.e. any app icon which is placed above workspace switcher icon on launcher) on the launcher also do not move to make space for the moving icon.

See screenshot 1 and 2 attached - it shows an icon being dragged on launcher and the icons next to BFB and workspace switcher icons on launcher are stuck in its place and dont move.

Action:-
#. Move the mouse so it is over a launcher icon for an application
#. Press and hold the mouse button
#. Drag the icon up and down over the icons in the launcher

Expected Result:
* As the centre of the dragged icon passes the mid-point of the next item above or below it, the icon being dragged over moves and is replaced by the blank "space".
* The BFB and the switcher icons do not move

to reproduce this bug you have to drag an icon in the launcher and very quickly take it out of the apps icon area in the launcher. see the video

Sorry folks, but as part of the bug clean up ahead of 16.04 I'm marking this as invalid because it affects an Ubuntu release which is now unsupported. If you can still recreate this bug in a supported release please do open a new bug and we can triage it for consideration in the 16.04 development cycle.
