I'm facing this problem. I'm using 12.04, with hidden launcher, and
while trying drag files from Nautilus to launcher, it (launcher) is not
un-hiding. So, the file cannot be dropped to the launcher itself (or to
other applications).

Title:
  cannot drag & drop to autohide launcher from Nautilus

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:
  1) set launcher to autohide (system prefs > appearance > behavior)
  2) drag something to the launcher, e.g. a manually created, valid desktop entry

  expected: launcher shows and item can be dropped

  actual behavior: scared launcher does not show :-)

  I guess this is intended to not disturb drag&drop operations in some
  applications by popping up the launcher. There are various
  workarounds, of course, in particular the intended way to add
  applications is "opening + keep in launcher", which - however - may
  not work with some manually created desktop entries.
