Bug Description
Many users will try unity, coming from the desktop or previous UNR. We should make an effort, on first run, to identify their favourite applications and put them in the Unity launcher.
MPT would have a more complete understanding of the options, feel free to update the bug description, but as a start I'd suggest:
- gnome panel launchers other than those we put there by default,
- desktop launchers
- kde start menu favourites?
Any first run code should be isolated and not break unity if it fails for any reason! i.e. test error conditions and handling and design for robustness!

It should look in Netbook launcher favorites as well, and do this at first run *only*.
