     (LP: #687721)
   - Add desktop action support to launcher quicklists (LP: #687403)

I'm not sure we can consider this bug fully fixed: shortcuts do work, but there's no visual indication when you press Alt (i.e. the letter that would open the menu does not become underlined).

Okay, so for some reason, although nothing Unity related got upgraded, I can't reproduce this bug. I'm closing it again then. Sorry for the noise.
