Title:
  [Launcher] Consider removing launcher hide time out

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  New
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In user testing some users were confused when launcher kept hiding
  when they were trying to look at the items to find some specific
  application. They even tried to keep the launcher open with one finger
  while scrolling with another.

  As far as I remember the Launcher is the only place where we use hide
  time out (inconsistent). I agree that it makes sense to have a time
  out when  desktop in question mouse is used as a pointer device. But
  on the phone and other touch devices where launcher is revealed with
  edge gesture I find it irritating and doesn't really serve any
  purpose.

  I would consider removing the time out from touch devices.
