Bug Description
IN SHORT:
The position of unity:/
DETAILED INFORMATION:
I will explain this using an example, which makes it easier to explain and understand.
Suppose that I have Nautilus and Firefox (+ workspaces and devices) pinned to the Unity launcher, in that order.
When I open, for example, gedit, its icon appears below Firefox.
"dconf read /com/canonical/
['application
If I move Firefox's icon to below gedit (not pinned), any new applications that I open that are not pinned appear above Firefox's icon, even after closing gedit.
"dconf read /com/canonical/
['application
'unity:
The problem is that, after restarting the session or rebooting, 'unity:
But "dconf read /com/canonical/
['application
The "favorites" are also maintained in gsettings:
"gsettings get com.canonical.
IMPACT:
Because of this bug, users cannot pin applications to the "bottom" of the launcher, as unpinned apps will always appear below the last pinned application.

This bug effects my Vivid installation as well - unity version . I see a March milestone entry but since there was also a change earlier that seems to include my version, I'll report it.
Vivid 64-bit 04.20150420- 0ubuntu1
Unity: 7.3.2+15.
