It's not related to bug #676453. Instead, it's about the animation to be added in bug #955147, which is to be added in Unity 5.10. An initial version of the change landed in Unity 5.8 that has everything except the animation.

This is quite a good idea but it falls apart when clicking on said icon doesn't actually do anything during installation. While installing, it should go to the installation progress page of the Software Center. When the installation is complete, it should launch the application instead.
