Bug Description
This is a known issue by the unity team themselves, just reporting this bug so I can track the issue.
We need to tweak the unity shell somewhat so that the expo view doesn't look so ugly. Also it might be necessary to include a few distro patches to expo:
1) We need to redecorate maximized windows (and hide the buttons in the shell view) when the expo plugin is triggered
2) We need to always make sure that the launcher is shown, and it should IGNORE moving windows for the intellihide case
-------
Desired solution:
Improve Expo view, moving towards 'The Spread' design detailed in the links below. Make sure any changes made are steps towards the full implementation of these specifications.

I think only the redecorating is not working, right? Though I don't honestly think it matters...
