That just means cluttering the dash instead of the launcher, which I don't
fancy, since at the moment, I really don't like the way the Dash works. It
feels too inefficient.

I disagree. I think the launcher should always come back showing the apps
side. After all, the launcher is much more often used to do app
switching/launching of favorite apps, than to call up the dash (which is
used for more infrequent tasks), so having it appear always showing the more
often used

Looking good!
I think the corner button could flip the launcher AND activate
the Dash. It makes sense:
- clicking on an application launcher closes the Dash if it's
open anyway, so there's little use in making the application
side available when the Dash is open
- the tendency is to Dash

The change that you propose might make it harder to see which application a
particular menu belongs to. I think it's that (and the desire to hide a bit
of messy interface) that led to the current situation, although I've no

Possibly. The titlebar is used to differentiate between two windows of the
same app, or less used to differentiate
