[Bug 39511] Clicking a launcher repeatedly starts multiple instances of an application

[Adam Gregory]

Public bug reported:

Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Minor
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
Sometimes people get impatient waiting for a large application such as
evolution to start up, and they click the launcher again several times
to make sure it's starting.

The result is increased delay, and then lots of windows opening, which
can be confusing. Having startup notification helps, but I've seen it
happen still. I think maybe this behaviour should be considered a bug,
because I can't think of many occasions when having several instances of
the application start up at once is the desired outcome.
