Run xwininfo and click on the launcher, panel or dash. You will see they have the simplistic types:
  launcher
  panel
  Dash

That's accurate, but if you want to write window matching rules specifically for unity then it's risky. Because some other desktop environment could easily be using the same titles.

My suggestion is to use more unique titles like
  unity-launcher
  unity-panel
  unity-dash
