Bug Description

Exact steps to reproduce:

- Close all running apps
- Open system settings, or any app which supports landscape mode
- hold the device in landscape mode, and wait for the shell to rotate
- switch to the task manager
- close the app
- press the power button to lock the device

- press the power button and unlock the device (still holding it in landscape mode)
- stand in admiration of the dash in landscape mode :-)

Also, while in this state, if you rotate your device you'll see that you can transition between (broken) landscape and portrait mode for the unity8-dash too :-)

So I will rephrase this bug to be about the fact that you can freely rotate a portrait-only app (unity8-dash) by following the steps in the description.
