Bug Description
plank worked fine until the latest update (yesterday 30/11/13) to version 0.5.0. Running on Mint 15 with Cinnamon.
At start up plank remains invisible (normally I keep it permanently showing). As soon as I start any program plank appears and from there on works normally. Starting a program means it appears among plank's items so, I imagine, triggering a redraw.
Source of problem: thunderbird is set to run at system start. It is also on the plank menu. If I remove it from plank, everything works fine. Is this a timing problem? What happens if, when plank starts up, apps from its list are already running?

I'm having problems reproducing this. Plank should behave fine if apps are already running (does for me).
This might be specific to Mint, and I am on Ubuntu.
