One question: can you raise a window while dragging an object? After our internal user revolt (yes, an actual revolt insisting on a return to a desktop "like Maverick"), we moved to Linux Mint and I haven't seen Unity since. This didn't work as of Unity in 12.04: 1. Maximise Thunderbird 2. Compose a message 3. Switch back to the main Thunderbird window 4. Drag a message to the compose window, attempting to forward it as an attachment In Gnome 2, Cinnamon, and KDE, dragging an object to a task bar entry will will raise that window. In Unity, it tries to pin the app to the launcher. There is no way to drag something to a lowered window. The only way to forward messages in the way I describe above is to unmaximise Thunderbird, then position the message list and compose window side by side. This kind of defeats the purpose of working with maximised apps. * * Yes, there are more cumbersome ways to do this in Thunderbird, but my point is not being able to drag objects to apps in the background.
