drag and drop from dash to launcher issues

[PEIGNOT Kévin]

Binary package hint: unity

When I drag a program from the dash to the launcher, it should drag the icon of the program, but it's à big black square, that isn't becoming the icon before it is in the launcher. To reproduce it, it's very simple : drag a program from dash to launcher, if you have the bug, you will understand immediately!

[Doug McMahon (mc3man)]

While there is no "black box" anymore at best am only able to drag an app icon to the launcher once per session from dash/applications.place (if even once
Any further (or the orig) . attempts results in not being able to 'pick' up an icon and or a compiz crash, either immediately or after closing application.place

On the other hand dragging and dropping .desktops from the filesystem or desktop works fine.
An apport compiz crash report is created (not on the failed drag and drop but on the subsequent compiz crash.
Can file a new bug from that if needed
