I don't think so: the launcher is used to create a new *window* for an
application or to bring the *window* of that application up. As far I know,
applications that does not have a window can not be pinned (and aren't even
shown) in launcher.

If we consider "application" as "all windows of given application", yes, I
agree. Anyway, I don't think the title is completly clear.
