[Bug 1077201] [NEW] Unity Launcher steals minimize app animation end point from other docks

 

Public bug reported:

If I use a dock app other than Unity Launcher (e.g. Docky, AWN, Cairo
etc.) and use an animation for minimizing my open windows (for example,
'Magic Lamp'), the animation should be ending on my dock app's icon for
that window. However, more often than not, Unity's Launcher steals that
end point, so on minimizing the animation's end point goes to the
Launcher instead on the other dock app as it should. Same thing with the
start point for the restore animation. This is most frustrating for me,
it looks disgusting.
