unity launcher will not display when all text selected (but not copied) in full screened application

[James Hunt]

This sounds crazy, but it's consistent on my system (T410 with Nvidia GT218 [NVS 3100M] and proprietary nvidia graphics drivers).

To recreate:

1) Full-screen an application (I've tried firefox, gvim and gedit).
2) Select *all* text using your mouse either in a text-box (firefox) or in the buffer (gvim, gedit), but do *NOT* edit-copy/Ctrl+c.
3) attempt to move your mouse far left to have the unity launcher appear.

Expected results: launcher pops out.

Actual results: no launcher.

Additiona info:

- If you select some of the text in (2), everything works as expected.
- If you Edit->Copy or Ctrl+C to copy all the text, everything works as expected.

Thanks for your bug report, it's quite old could you try if that's still an issue in more recent versions?
