Jonathan,
I am so sorry for not replying back to you. I was wrapped up in a project
for weeks now and we just finished.
Seems your research and working the bug confirmed my thoughts it was unity
only and not Gnome etc.
I will next time not supply a bug unless I know I can answer you back. But
looks like in time it will be fixed.

Kindly,
Bruce
