Title:
  Spread causes Compiz's 'scale' plugin to inaccurately pad the
  right/left edges of the screen

Bug description:
  When using Unity with two windows of the same size open, activating
  compiz's 'scale' causes inconsistent padding at either sides of the
  screen. This is because the scale plugin does not factor the Unity
  launcher's width into the calculations; therefore, the left edge of
  the screen has less padding than the right edge.

  The problem detailed with measurement:

  I think scaling should be done considering the screen width minus the
  dock width.

  This may seem very tricky to pull out since scale is a compiz plugin
  and so on, but, again, like it is and when windows get under the dock,
  it feels strange.

  Cheers.
