I can confirm this behavior even in the latest daily. And it is confusing when we close the app/places and still the indicator is still present.

And if we open the app/places the second time, there is a second marker as if there were two active instances of the app..

Annoying. Seems Bamf and the launcher consider that all dash layers are active at the same time.

Bamf does not control these indicators, they are controlled by subclassing
