Title:
  unity launcher steals mouse motion on dual-head display

Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On my dual-head system with screens in left-right juxtaposition, the
  unity launcher now appears on the left of each screen.  Fair enough,
  it can be configured to hide itself.  But it steals mouse movement
  strongly, so that a rapid mouse move from one screen to the other
  causes a long delay at the screen boundary -- longer than the cross-
  screen mouse move, so quite an interruption.

  A work-around is to auto-hide the launcher with reveal location set to
  top left corner.
