There has been a lot of updates lately for 12.04, even some Unity ones.  
I run MATE instead of Unity.  Maybe 12.10 works better.  I am running it 
on my testing laptop [but with MATE as well], but run 12.04/MATE for my 
default desktop system.

I do see the Unity Integration "box" you are referring to.  My question 
seem to be what it the current state of the Unity Integration for the 
12.04/12.10 versions.  How much has been changed between 3.6.5 and 4.0.0 
that affected the integration, other than the addition of "persona" to 
the UI?

I wonder why the integration will not work with 12.xx since that it the 
current version of Ubuntu?  It what you was given was true, why would 
they work on doing the work on the OS version that is not even out?  
Does not make sense. I waited a long time before I went from 10.04 LTS 
to 12.04LTS, just before 12.10 came out.  So if the next LTS is 
14.04LTS, then there will be a lot of Ubuntu users [Unity or others] 
that will be still using 12.xx for another year or so.  Now work for 
12.xx, does not make sense.  It needs to work and not "make" you wait 
till 13.04 or later.
