Bug Description

Using 5.2-rc1 (but also happens with Precise packages), the workspace switcher icon moves one up from the trash item when dragging another item _outside_ of the launcher towards the trash item.

Though the drop point marker shows up at the right position, the empty place between workspace switcher and trash suggests a wrong drop point (and indeed, the launcher item will be placed correctly above the workspace switcher).

-------
Bug confirmed by design, please fix ;-)

Hey Herando, thanks for the bug report here! I'm not sure if it's on purpose or not. It makes sense when you drag on the launcher back.

However, I agree with you this shouldn't happen when you are hovering the trash, adding to the list.
