I agree that this blocks using the desktop and is a very bad bug. As for an estimate, I don't have one. I'm not the one that usually bundles up new releases of unity8. But this fix will be in the next release.

Version 8.02+15.04.20150318-0ubuntu1 of the unity8 package. The initial setup when first launching is stuck. Swiping the app launcher from the left works fine, but swiping the app switcher from the right won't work. It's stuck at the screen that says "To view open apps Long swipe from the right edge." with an unresponsive wobbly switcher to the right.
