Title:
  After clicking in top-left corner of screen, sidebar won't open

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Although I run into this in various other situations, the following is
  the most consistent way I can reproduce it:

  Set to Unity launcher to auto-hide (Appearance | Behavior tab | Auto-
  hide the Launcher -> On, Reveal location: left side, reveal
  sensitivity: default)

  * With no open windows (i.e., desktop visible), click in the very top
  left of the screen

  * Attempt to open launcher by pushing into left edge of screen

  Expected:  slight shadow appears when cursor touches left edge, and
  launch appears after pressing into the edge

  Actual:  nothing happens, no amount of pressing into the edge will
  open launcher

  * Double-click on the desktop:  Launcher will now open fine

  
  This is especially disruptive given that the top-left corner is where the close-window button lives:  the workflow of "Close window, go to launch to open different task" consistently triggers this.
