Bug description:
  [IMPACT]

  The Dash was rendered underneath fullscreen windows so it was
  invisible, although it grabs keyboard input.

  [TEST CASE]

  - Launch an application in fullscreen (Firefox, Totem).
  - Hit the Super key to call the dash.
  - The Dash should appear.
  - Keyboard input should be directed to the Dash.
  - Clicking anywhere on the full screen application should close the Dash.

  [REGRESSION POTENTIAL]

  No known regression potential.

  [OTHER INFO]

  The fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry picked from the Ubuntu "Vivid
  Vervet" dev release where it has been in production use for some time
  without apparent regression.
