Comment 2 for bug 797750

its not consistent.

If I start VLC then select to "add files" I can add one or more .mp3 or
.mpg files to VLC's play list.

Sometimes it just gets stuck at the play list with no way to get back to
viewing a movie if that's whats playing. Sometimes, the little "list" icon
at the top changes to allow you to toggle back and forth (from view to the
play list and back) sometimes it doesn't.

I also have found that I can't seem to start a 2nd VLC once its launched
once.

Why on Unity isn't there a Right-Click option to start another instance of
whatever app a Launch bar icon represents.

I found that if I start a terminal I can't start another terminal unless I
so a search for the Terminal Application and launch it that way versus just
being able to right-click on the Terminal Launcher icon again.

I know Unity is new and some of the app packages will straighten some of
this out before 11.10. Its been pretty good so far but there are some
niggling problems like these I've seen.
