"I'm getting a high number of accidental reveals when reaching for my
browser's back button on a trackpad."

@Jacob

am seeing this too.

Also i keep forgetting that the launcher is there hidden, so i often
leave my mouse at the left border...

and i think a lot of new users will not even know where the launcher
went...

possible solution:
We need some visual reminder that the launcher is there in order to minimize 
the false positives. The launcher could visually stick out 4 or 5 pixels.

Other than a reminder, also serves as a "visual limiter" to indicate
that you should not cross that area unless you want it revealed. It
should also create enough extra space to avoid accidental move of the
trackpad to that area when all the user wants to hit is the browser back
button.
