Bug Description

On current Precise beta, the bottom app icon pinned to the Launcher is not 'sticky' as it should be. When I first log in and launch an app that isn't pinned to the Launcher, that app's icon will appear between the bottom pinned icon and second-from-bottom one, instead of between the bottom icon and the workspace switcher as it should.

This is a regression - this problem existed in Oneiric and was fixed recently but after the recent Unity upgrade has now returned.
