  Lenses usability problems

Bug description:
  Unity and window action (show / min / max /close)  is focused on the
  top left of the screen. However the two standard lenses (Applications
  and Files & Folders) are at the bottom of the stack and on most
  smaller screen devices in a "tilted" or "hidden state". This is not
  only counter intuitive (the Application & Places menu until now was
  also in the top left corner), it increases the mouse travel distance
  (when activating Unity from a hidden state) from top to the bottom of
  the screen every time a lens action is required. These lenses should
  be on the top of the stack - not the bottom and always "visible" i.e.
  not tilted. There is also no explanation for new users to right click
  on the lens to view the list options.
