I also noticed that icons can reposition in launcher fine right after reboot as long as no new icons have been not been added to launcher. It looks like maybe once you drag icons over from the dash to the launcher - somehow they lock up positioning for the whole bar. I'm guessing I'll be able to reposition icons after reboot...but I'll just be happy with the workaround for now.
Zsolt: Thank you! Great work around!
It helped me as well.
