  Dash bullet expansion is confusing and difficult to discover

Bug description:
  Section bullets are hard to discover and confusing, in both unity 7
  and 8.

  Unity7+8: A small set of applications/icons are shown under each
  heading making it look like that heading is already fully expanded.
  Result: The user never thinks to tap on the heading (like "Installed")
  again to see more apps/icons.

  Unity 8: Arrows next to headings are misleading:
  Collapsed:  Heading v
  Expanded:  Heading ^
  Again, the down arrow suggests the list is already fully expanded so users 
don't think to tap on it again to further expand the list. Many people will 
expect the more familiar convention:
  Collapsed: Heading >
  Expanded: Heading v

  On a touch image this leads to simple but frustrating problems like
  the user never finding  "System Settings". Because it's non-obvious
  they need to tap on "Applications" which looks like it's already
  expanded.
