Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
Observed behaviour:
When there are too many items in the launcher the launchers at the bottom and/or top will "accordion", but when I place my pointer over those items, the bottom most items will go below the bottom of the screen. It seems like unity is not taking into account either the bottom of the screen or the position at which the pointer entered the launcher area.
Expected behaviour:
The bottom should be a hard limit and when the launchers expand the launcher above should push the other icons up. I think this also needs to take into account where the pointer enters the launcher area as that indicates which launchers the user is trying to click. Therefore, if the pointer enters in the middle there is no need to expand the folded icons at the bottom. If the pointer enters at the top, the top should be a hard limit and the folded icons should push the other icons down.
