Bug Description

I can't seem to drag a link/url from firefox onto auto-hiding launcher, neither does it show automatically on drag, or when I press against the left edge.

And when I disable auto-hiding, I can't drop the url on any icon in the launcher, even when they obviously take urls (firefox, chromium).

It's a usability issue that doesn't limit the functionality of a core package.
