It's been pointed out to me that Wily does not integrate anything Google
by default.  Checking back, I set up the Google account in my Online
Accounts, when I installed evolution, so I could import my google
contacts.

Google contacts don't export in a format which the Thunderbird address-
book can use, and the recommended method I found on the Ubuntu wiki
seems to be to install evolution.

This must have been where the problem began - although I had assumed
Google account integration was a Wily default.  My bad!

It still represents a Unity problem when they are removed though, so
I'll add this information to the bug.

Title:
  Unity dash fails to show applications

Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Immediately after removing interaction with all Google accounts
  (settings->online accounts), the Unity dash no longer showed any
  applications, only files recently accessed.  The launcher sidebar is
  unaffected, and the dash appears as normal but without access to
  applications.  I re-instated all the default online account setting
  with no effect even after re-booting.  I found in an Ubuntu wiki, a
  workaround for the same problem in 15.04, but this is not longer
  useable, as the '--reset' Unity commandline parameter, which was
  required, has now been removed.  So far, I can't find where this
  information is stored, and there is no useful item to edit in the
  Unity plugin as seen in cssm.  I am willing to try anything suggested
  and report.
