Bug Description

===================================================================================
FFe rationale:
- fixes broken functionality that users expect to 'just work'.
- code change is very isolated and limited.
- zeitgeist is relatively mature and proven technology.
- adds new dependency to Unity, but on the other hand, zeitgeist is already present in the distro and many packages depend on it (such as lenses).
===================================================================================

Files deleted by dragging and dropping the file from the Dash to the Trash are not removed from the Dash

To Reproduce:
1. Open the Dash File Lens
2. Drag and drop a file from the File Lens to the Trash
3. Re-open the Dash and navigate to the File Lens
4. Notice that the file you just deleted is still there!
5. Try to load the file by clicking on it.
6. Nothing happens.

Desired Resolution:
- As soon as a file is deleted by dragging and dropping it from the Dash to the Trash, the file should be immediately removed from the Dash

@stolowski; does this need a ffe?? It is most definitely a bug, no new functionality is being introduced.

@johnlea I tend to agree, but I discussed this with seb128 and he thought it might need ffe; this change introduces new dependency to the unity package.

Adding a dependency doesn't require an FFe (unless it's going to need an MIR). Unsubscribing the release team.

      (LP: #1046352)
    - UnityWindow: scale window code improved (LP: #1033935)
    - The mouse will now cause the HUD buttons to change selection
      (LP: #1042692)
    - "Alt+Space" shortcut to reveal the window menu is not hardcoded, but a
       Compiz key option. " (Hold)" should also be translated. Made all
       Compiz plug-in names and all Compiz plug-in option names in
       unityshell.cpp static constants.
    - remove unity --reset, it's not anymore really needed now that we are
      in stable days of unity and we moved to gsettings
    - Removed the variables 'oldPrev' and 'oldNext' which got assigned the
      value NULL, but then were never used
    - Fixed the size of the previews to 770x380 pixels. (LP: #1045243)
    - UnityWindow: use smart pointers, use static close_icon (with dynamic
      state) and PanelStyle context (LP: #1033935) (LP: #1045127)
      (LP: #1046124) (LP: #1046126)
    - Remove everything in the #ifndef USE_MODERN_COMPIZ_GL ifdefs and remove
      the ifdefs alltogether. unity now requires compiz...
