Public bug reported: On my dual-head system with screens in left-right juxtaposition, the unity launcher now appears on the left of each screen. Fair enough, it can be configured to hide itself. But it steals mouse movement strongly, so that a rapid mouse move from one screen to the other causes a long delay at the screen boundary -- longer than the cross-screen mouse move, so quite an interruption.
A work-around is to auto-hide the launcher with reveal location set to top left corner.
