** Description changed:

  When in the App Lens (and Dash home), the user should be able to drag
  and drop application icons to the Launcher to install the application.
  
  Desired solution:
  
  - dragging and dropping a application from the 'Apps available to
  download category header' onto the Launcher should:
  
- 1)  add the application icon to the launcher in a grayed out state 
- 2)  install the application.  
+ 1)  add the application icon to the launcher in a grayed out state
+ 2)  install the application.
  
  As the application is installed, the app icon should fill with colour.
  When installation is complete, the icon should be in its normal state
  fully filled with colour.  Remember to also review bug
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-design/+bug/676453 for details of the
  installing animation.

+ ===============================
+ 
+ This bug would be an ideal bug for someone to get started hacking on
+ Unity, here's some information:
+ 
+  * Time to fix: 10h
+  * Difficulty: normal
+  * Implementation:
+ 
+ This bug should piggy back on the implementation of
+ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/676453 using the same
+ internal call structure, but setting up the apt-daemon install process
+ by itself. It's not unimaginable to consider even having the dash use
+ the same interface for installing as the software center (making the
+ same dbus call as mention in bug #676453)
+ 
+  * Where to look: src/Launcher.cpp
+  * Workflow information: http://unity.ubuntu.com/getinvolved/
