Bug description:
  Using mouse with unity-panel auto-hide mode makes the mouse to shift
  left while pointer stays in place (at the left edge). The effect is
  your mouse is shifting (every time you acces launcher) to the left
  until there is no space on the table and you have to put it up and
  move to the right. This is very inconvinient and makes usage of the
  unity launcher unreliable. The issue was introduced with the new
  launcher reveal mechanizm when you have to "push" the pointer do the
  left edge to make launcher re-appear. It happened after upgrade from
  Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04. The bug affects unity and unity-2d.
