Bug description:
  When a drag and drop action from the Dash is abandoned by dropping the
  item back into the Dash, all the Launcher icons suddenly become
  illuminated

  To reproduce:

  1. To reproduce this bug you must be using duel monitors, set up to extend the desktop (e.g. NOT mirror)
  2. Open the Dash on one of the monitors, and start to drag an item
  3. Drop the item back into the Dash to abandon the action.

  Current incorrect behaviour in 12.10: either:
  a) All the Launcher icons suddenly loose their tinting for a brief moment (e.g. all the Launcher icons flicker)
  b) After the drop action has been perfomred, all the Launcher icons loose their tinting 

  A screencast of this bug is attached, see Launcher_flicker.ogv

  Note this screencase was made on the 10th Oct 2012, with a fully up to
  date vanilla install of Quantal

  Correct desired behaviour as currently implemented in 12.04:  When the
  drag and drop action is abandoned, the valid drop receptacles return
  to the tinted state.  The Launcher icons which were not valid drop
  receptacles do not change of flicker in any way, they remain in the
  tinted state.
