Bug Description

Dragging and dropping a file or folder on to the launcher icon of the "Show desktop" application should copy the dropped files to the desktop.

Note: the 'show desktop' application is a new mini-application that users will optionally be able to install from the software centre or the App Lens. Clicking on the application's Launcher icon minimises all windows on the desktop.

See bug #681348

I'm not sure if it'll be optional. Right now it's shipped with the unity package in ppa:unity-team/staging
