Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

Two issues:

1.) The launcher panel gets focused on mouse-over. I often place the pointer on the screen's left edge while typing, so this is very annoying (but maybe a layer 8 problem rather than a bug).

2.) Bigger issue: it seems that the launcher keeps the focus unless the pointer is moved from the launcher panel back to the desktop. So if the pointer is moved to the left edge, the upper left corner, to the right (over the top panel), and back to the desktop, the desktop won't get the focus back and is blocked (doesn't react to clicks).

Attached a clip to illustrate the problem.
