Title:
  Ubuntu dock auto-hide using mouse is unreliable

Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is usability bug that exists in Ubuntu starting from 2012 (see
  this bug report:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/996158)

  Using mouse with Ubuntu dock 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 try to access the dock) to the
  left until there is no space on the table and you have to take it up
  and move to the right. This is very inconvinient and makes usage of
  the dock unreliable.

  The issue seems to be caused such a reveal mechanizm when you have to
  "push" the pointer do the left edge to make dock to re-appear. The
  faulty behaviour has been introduced in Unity-2D, than copied to Unity
  than copied to gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock.

  Currently there is no other option but DO NOT USE THE AUTO HIDE
  function to avoid frustration.
