I tested xenial with 8.12+16.04.20160401-0ubuntu1 yesterday. It doesn't
work. As you say in comment #3, smaller surfaces like menus and tooltips
don't work - they take over the whole app window rendering the app
unusable.

Unity8 can't display multi-surface apps (including menus and tooltips)

Bug description:
Unity8 can't display multi-surface apps (including menus and
tooltips).
Fixing bug 1497085 was a great start. However instead of crashing
Unity8 now just shows the most recently created window by the app in
the apps /single window/, and stretches it too. When such a secondary
window like a menu or tooltip closes, you never get back to the
original app window. So existing apps still aren't quite usable yet.
Test case:
sudo apt-get install mir-demos
mir_demo_client_multiwin -- --desktop_file_hint=unity8
Expected: Three windows (red, green, blue)
Observed: Only the blue window
You can also experience the same bug with lots of apps via: Xmir
-rootless under Unity8.
