Bug Description

unity:
Installed: 0.2.18-0ubuntu1~lucid1

bamfdaemon:
Installed: 0.2.36-0ubuntu1~lucid1

I have over 30 icons in the launcher now. All kind of stuff gets left behind. Low disk warning dialog (tooltip is gnome-settings-daemon), Archive Manager, Indicator-network-settings, Gdu-notification-daemon etc. The menu (I think you call it Quicklist) has the Add to Launcher item so they weren't pinned for sure.

Some, like gnome-settings-dialog and gdu-notifcation-daemon have multiple icons, I'm guessing the number of times they appeared equals the number of their icons in the launcher.
