Public bug reported:
Sometimes left clicking the nautilus launcher icon doesn't bring up a
minimized nautilus window. Instead of restoring the window a new
instance of nautilus is showing up.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a nautilus window by clicking on the launcher icon.
2. Navigate to a symlinked directory whose target is located on a different
harddrive (for example: a symlink to a folder on a sd-card).
3. Minimize the nautilus window.
4. Try to bring up that window again by clicking the launcher icon.
What happens:
1. A new instance (window) of nautilus is opened.
2. There's no obvious way to access the first window again. The only way is
ALT+TAB.
What schould happen:
If a nautilus window is already open and minimized clicking the launcher
icon should bring up that window. This was the behavior of nautilus
windows in Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal).
