Comment 4 for bug 1045256

@om26er; I'm leaving this as incomplete for now because of other Dash changes that we are in the process of making, and because @vanvugt's good suggestion of not limiting the action to just the area's in between the icons introduces possible conflicts with drag and drop actions which will need to be managed, increasing the amount of work required to fix the issue. We will come back to this issue and try to fix during the 13.10 cycle.
