Unity launcher covers desktop icons

[Michael Martin-Smucker]

When using nautilus-elementary (but not the stock Nautilus provided in Ubuntu 11.04), the Unity launcher obscures the first column of icons on the desktop (only when set to auto-hide or dodge, which is the default).

For more information, here is the fixed bug reported against Nautilus in Ubuntu 11.04: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/684649

I added the ubuntu patch to nautilus-elementary if you want to test it.

@James thanks very much, love your tweaks to the light-themes as well!

@ammonkey That bug only occurs when you resize the launcher, and is just an annoyance. This bug is a usability issue with the default Unity behavior instead.
