Public bug reported:

When using the gnome-shell desktop environment in Ubuntu (tested on
11.10 and 12.04) there is an annoying bug with nautilus regarding the
mouse cursor on nautilus startup.

When you start nautilus by clicking on the gnome-shell-icon the mouse
cursor will keep spinning for at least half a minute. (sometimes there
also is a spinning wheel on the top panel.

This happens only when you have nautilus handle the desktop.

I have found out when the bug occurs and when it does not:

Bug occurs when:

clicking the icon on the gnome-shell-panel
clicking on the icon of the gnome-extension (Frippery Panel Favorites)
clicking on the link to a subfolder of the homedirectory using the gnome-shell 
extension All-in-one-Places
clicking on the notivication which appears when inserting a harddrive of some 
kind


Bug does not occur when:

clicking on the link to the homedirectory using the gnome-shell extension 
All-in-one-Places
clicking on a direct desktop icon to the home folder or any other folder
starting nautilus via terminal


I also tested this using the ubuntu server version (12.04) and installing the 
hgnome shell manually without any unity files 


This bug does not occur on Fedora or any other distribution using gnome-shell, 
therefore I assume it must have something to do with Ubuntu and Nautilus.
