** Description changed:

  Dropping a file into a window via the 'drag file to Launcher, then drag
  file to Spread' interaction fails to load the file into the selected
  window.
  
  To reproduce:  Open two firefox windows.  Drag a .html or .png file to
  the Firefox icon in the Launcher.  As soon as the spread appears quickly
  drop the file to one of the firefox windows.  The file should open into
  the window it was just dropped on but nothing happens.
  
  Does not work, needs to be fixed ;-)
+ 
+ ============================
+ 
+ This bug would be an ideal bug for someone to get started hacking on
+ Unity, here's some information:
+ 
+  * Time to fix: 3h
+  * Difficulty: bitesize to normal
+  * Implementation:
+ 
+ There is a timer in compiz responsible for how long the user must hover
+ a window when the spread is active in order to trigger the spread to
+ collapse back on this window. It is currently way to finicky to get to
+ work right and needs to be "played with" in order to get a better feel.
+ Probably needs a shorter timer that doesn't reset every time the mouse
+ moves a single pixel. Look in the scale plugin in the compiz source
+ tree.
