Bug Description

[Test Case]
1. Have your Launcher not filled completely with icons
2. Start dragging one of the Launcher icons
3. While dragging, move the icon to the bottom of the screen, away from the Launcher
   -> Verify that the 'drop position line' on the Launcher indicates the space between the last application icon and the switcher icon.

[Regression Potential]
Launcher drag and drop broken. Broken dropping applications to the launcher and/or launcher icons.

Original description:

Using current staging (but it's there for some time)

* use a launcher non full of icons
* click an icon and dnd to the right to reoder it
* go to the bottom of the screen

What should happen: the "position" line on the launcher indicating where the icon will go should indicate the bottom slot

What happens: it's off by one and ignore the bottom slot

Probably dupe of bug 924623?

You can bring the drop point indicator down if you drag it inside the launcher, then down to the bottom slot, and outside of the launcher again. There's something wrong, no doubt. :-)

since the fix went into lp:unity and not lp:unity/5.0 wouldn't it make sense to assign it to 6.0 milestone of Unity?
