Dash To Dock shifts the clock to the right.

When moving to the left and disabling hiding. Watch the video for more information.

I think this is not a bug and the expected behavior:

When the dock is a panel, it's ok to center all using the actual workarea as reference (so that when you maximize an application the clock is centered to the space the app can use.

But when we're in auto-hide mode, there will be someone who prefers to have it centered using to the workarea (the whole screen) or to the visible area. And IHMO, the first one is the best behavior.

We can add an option to control this, but it's not super-trivial, as we'd need to hook into the shell upstream code, and I'd prefer to avoid adding customization that may not be too simple to maintain in the long run.
