Specification updated. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter?action=diff&rev2=674&rev1=672> Here's how I've addressed each of those questions I listed earlier:

1. During the installation process, and even the purchase process if any, the icon should be greyed-out in the Launcher. We should be doing that anyway -- that it appears in the Launcher only after installation now is a bug.

2. An unpinnable software item should cancel its drag in the normal way (by bouncing back to where you dragged it from). We wouldn't distinguish them specially, but it will be fairly obvious because unpinnable items will have a plain package as their icon.

3. If you drag an item that's already in the Launcher, that Launcher item should just move to the new position.
