[Bug 607796] Re: Launcher, Window management - Dragging and holding a selection over an entry in the Launcher should spread out windows belonging to that application

 

Apparently this bug is not fixed yet. As Ubuntu 14.04 LTS will still be
shipping with Unity 7, I hope it will be fixed by then. Unfortunately I
don't have the necessary skills to do it myself. Thanks a lot in advance
to the person who can get it fixed, I think it would really improve the
Unity user experience.
