Bug Description
Flash must be considered cheap nowadays. Unity8 is dumping about 1K - 2K of logging data to /home/phablet/
To observe the write activity, install fatrace, cd to / and run sudo fatrace -c
Also, tail -f /home/phablet/

ad nauseum
I'm not against logging errors, but *lots* of identical error messages filling up the flash file system at 1-2K a second costs us space and wastefully consumes power and adds to flash wear.

The unity8 log has now changed location, however I am seeing messages still being logged frequently to tail -f /home/phablet/
For example, just navigating from the Home Scope to the Applications and scrolling up/down and back again a few times I'm seeing the following messages being constantly appended to the log:
DEPRECATED use of Panel.opened property. This property will be made read-only,
