I'm facing this problem. I'm using 12.04, with hidden launcher, and
while trying drag files from Nautilus to launcher, it (launcher) is not
un-hiding. So, the file cannot be dropped to the launcher itself (or to
other applications).

the hidden launcher.
I have edited the description to correctly reflect this - very special
and not too important - issue.
