Hello, the "X" in the screenshot, if I mouse over it, it says "this
extension is not compatible with gnome 36 and has been disabled". So I
don't think it's doing anything as it's not crashing, it's being
disabled intentionally. Nonetheless, I removed the extension (so that
dash to panel is my only non-stock extension) and repeated the test
(closed and reopened laptop lid) and the problem (2 docks) reproduced.

(However note: I ALSO performed a test where I disabled Dash to Panel,
and also disabled Ubuntu Dock, and I closed and reopened the lid, and
Ubuntu Dock DID NOT come back. So it is possible Dash to Panel is
CAUSING the dock to reappear, by itself, and this is not a bug on
Ubuntu. If this is a bug on Dash to Panel I can go report in *their* bug
tracker, but I would like to gather enough information to confidently
tell Dash to Panel it's them.)

Title:
  Dock appears even though it is disabled

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I use an extension named "dash-to-panel". It replaces the dock (the
  app icons listing on the left). So that dash-to-panel and the dock do
  not fight for dominance, I run with the dock extension disabled (see
  attachment 16-34-21).

  Today I did a minor upgrade. Now every time I log out and back in (or,
  sleep and rewake the computer), the ubuntu dock appears, in addition
  to the dash-to-panel dock. If I go into the extensions app, and turn
  *any extension* off and back on, the ubuntu dock disappears.

  Expected behavior: If the dock extension is disabled, the dock should
  not appear.

  Note: It is possible the problem and/or the unusual behavior where the
  dock "remembers" it is disabled when an extension is flipped on and
  off, is with the dock-suppression mechanism in dash-to-panel and not
  Ubuntu; there is a separate bug on dash-to-panel
  https://github.com/home-sweet-gnome/dash-to-panel/issues/2199 .
  However, I think this is a separate issue from anything in dash-to-
  panel (if I flip the switch in the extensions program to disable the
  dock, then the dock should be disabled).
