Comment 4 for bug 461335

this is not a bug in Cairo-Dock, but the normal behaviour. just restart your
gnome-panel and it will work correctly ;-)
and by the way, you can separate the 2 entity in Cairo-Dock, just don't use
the option "mix applis and launchers"
you can even move your launchers to another main dock, and place it on
another side of your screen to have 2 docks : 1 for launchers, one for the
taskbar.
