Bug Description

Step to reasonably reproduce it:

- press "super" to reset the status and reveal the launcher
- release it
- reveal the launcher pressing the mouse against the edge
- move to 0x0 (top left)
-> the launcher hide
- move your cursor somewhere on the destkop
- press again against the edge to try to reveal the launcher
-> the launcher doesn't reveal

You have to press super for instance to "reset" the state.

I was able to reproduce this on the latest version of Ubuntu (15.10) by dragging a hyperlink from the browser to the edge of the screen, and then letting it go (it doesn't matter where). The launcher will then not reveal until <super> (or equivalent) is pressed. This isn't the only way to reproduce this, but it is the only one I have pinned down.
