Public bug reported:

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).
