Title:
unity launcher does not retain custom application when dragging
Status in Unity:
Fix Released
Status in Unity 5.0 series:

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
We've created a custom ~/.local/share/applications/app-lication.desktop.
(yes, the filename has a hyphen in it).
It shows in the dash, but does not get retained by the launcher when
dragging it from the dash. To retain it, one has to launch it from the dash,
then right click on it in the launcher and choose "Keep In Launcher".
This works.
The desktop file looks like this:
0 user@somalia:~$ cat .local/share/applications/su-application.desktop
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
[Desktop Entry]
