Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: unity
PROBLEM
It's very easy to overshoot a web browser's back button, commonly
located at the left-most edge of the window, and make the Unity launcher
menu thing slide out instead. This means a moment of dancing with the
mouse cursor before I'm able to click "back" like I intended to.
HOW TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Firefox or Chromium.
2. Navigate to a page.
3. Attempt to click the "back" button without triggering the launcher.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
A commonly-performed task will be easy to execute, and will not punish
users for deviating from an exact procedure. It's often easier to
"bounce" the mouse cursor off the edge of the screen and reposition it
over the back button, than it is to move to the back button and stop
right on top of it.
