Public bug reported:

To reproduce:

1. Using a computer with two monitors, set the Launcher to 'auto-hide'
and sticky edges to 'off'

2. Set the 'sticky edges deactivated for number of milliseconds after
the user breaks the barrier' variable in CCSM to "1000ms"

3. Move the pointer over the boundary from the left screen to the right
screen slowly, and then try to move it back again (within 1 second).

What currently happens: the pointer gets caught on the Launcher reveal
edge resistance on the left edge of the right monitor

What should happen: There should be no resistance when the pointer comes
back across the barrier because the barrier was already broken inside
1000ms when the pointer moved from the left monitor to the right
monitor.

Also: set the value of the variable to 1000ms

--------------------------------

Add 'sticky edges deactivated for number of milliseconds after the user
breaks the barrier' variable to CCSM. This variable would de-activate
sticky edges for a set number of milliseconds every time after the
user's pointer moves from one monitor to another.

In addition to the 1000ms barrier switch off timer, the barrier should
also only be switched off for only one crossing e.g. so that if the user
tries to correct an accidental crossing of the barrier they can do so
with no resistance, but after correcting this accidental crossing the
barrier is switched on even if 1000ms has not yet elapsed.

The idea behind this behaviour is to allow the user to course-correct
after they have broken through the barrier the first time.
