Title:
  Launcher randomly stops showing up when you move the mouse to the left
  of the screen. Randomly clicking on some window's title bar almost
  always fixes it

Bug description:
  At random times, and very, very often (I haven't found out what
  triggers it), the Launcher stops showing up. That is, you move the
  mouse all the way to the left of the screen and the Launcher doesn't
  show up. You retry and retry but it won't show up.

  Clicking randomly on some window's titlebar and retrying usually fixes
  it. Most of the times, clicking on some other part of a window other
  than the title bar won't do the trick. I'm not sure this is always the
  case, but I'm under the impression it's necessary to click on a
  window's titlebar, or at least that is far far more likely to do the
  trick.

  This looks to me unrelated to #1225769, but I'm not sure; there may be
  some nontrivial relation. What I can say is that the steps described
  in 1225769 don't systematically reproduce this one, which is more
  random, but I can't tell for example whether or not having used Show
  Desktop is a necessary condition to observe this issue.
