Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce :
  - launch an application in fullscreen (Firefox, Totem…)
  - hit the Super key to call the dash

  -> Unity 5.x: The dash is displayed, but it is click through…
  -> Unity 6.x: The dash is not displayed at all.

  In both cases, the cause of this bug is because the Unity Nux windows
  are not being stacked above the fullscreen window.

  -----------------------------
  Desired resolution:

  - If a window is fullscreen and the Dash is invoked, the Dash should
  be displayed on top of the full screen window.

  - Apps should remain full screen when the dash is opened

  - Any actions the user performs on top of the Dash area should be sent
  to the Dash, not the full screen application.

  - Clicking anywhere on the full screen application should close the
  Dash
