(Get the code!)
I long have given up on this.
However here are two more observations.
Confirming Simon P.'s (simpre) observation that applications are not docked.
Another issue: when clicking on the activities button once, it does not show the app overview. It requires a second click.
This is also true with any activation (like Meta-L to lock the machine).
Another anecdote:
Yesterday I did some programming. I locked the machine and put it to sleep (another function that used to work reliably and now is completely broken) but when I came back, it was up and running. The IDE was visible. I could position the cursor and enter text.
The text was not echoed on the screen but after unlocking the text was there. If this was crucial code anyone could render it unusable or add to it.
@Andrea Azzarone: This is a severe security issue to me and many others. I hope the proposed fix (as noted above) is really fixing this issue and comes out soon. It's a shame that something like this passes rollout (although I have some understanding for that) but even more so the initial ignorance and reluctance to trust hundreds of users that there is an issue that needs quick fixing (which I have no understanding for whatsoever).
