Bug Description

Binary package hint: deskbar-applet

In Ubuntu 7.10, clicking the deskbar icon places the search dialog wherever it was last placed, making it easy to to place it where the entire list of options can be seen. In 8.04RC the search dialog pops up in a random location and will begin to "creep" progressively lower and lower on the screen with repeated invocations.
