Bug Description

There are some cases when the Launcher shouldn't hide on long left edge swipes. One example is when the dash is already focused.

----------------------------------------
Desired solution

When there is no visible navigation change happening due to the long left edge swipe the Launcher should not hide. For example if apps scope is the current screen when the long left edge swipe is performed

I agree with the given example. Launcher shouldn't hide in that case. Can you come up with other use cases?

Not at the moment. But Michal said there would be some. I think its our task to walk through all situations and decide how to handle them (hence the bug report and not just fixing that single example)
