Title:
Clicking the first item on launcher starts it moving sometimes
Status in Unity:

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Binary package hint: unity
Occasionally when I click (sometimes accidentally) on the first item in the
launcher, which I have as gnome-terminal (it may occur with other items in the
launcher, but I haven't experienced it), it tries to move the icon. This would
probably be okay if I were clicking and dragging it to try to move it, but I'm
not, I'm just clicking on it (there may be some movement of the mouse that's
causing it, but it's not deliberate). It detaches the icon from the launcher
and leaves it hovering somewhere nearby. I can move my mouse around, but it
doesn't move the icon. It is as if the icon is stuck. Clicking somewhere on
the launcher again seems to fix it but clicking on the hovering icon does
nothing.
It is not very reproducible because I cannot determine under which situations
it occurs. I have not managed to deliberately cause it. I just now tried
clicking randomly on the icon with various small mouse gestures (and also no
movement) and it didn't happen. However, I did manage (twice) to do something
similar. I managed to get all the icons to move down as if I were dragging all
the icons down. They got stuck, even though I had let go of the mouse button
and was moving the pointer around the screen freely. Again, clicking anywhere
on the launcher but them back in place. It is as if the launcher is not
correctly recognising ButtonRelease events.
I actually just now (in a second session of attempts) managed it but in my
frantic clicking reset it before I could get a screenshot. : ( I suppose a
screenshot wouldn't provide much information though.
This has happened with both my laptop's touchpad and my desktop's mouse (on
those machines respectively, both fresh installs) so it is probably not to do
with hardware.
