as now, there is a "Remove from Launcher" option in the contextual menu
of Samba/network shares icons in the Launcher.

Title:
[regression] Samba shares showing up in Launcher - No way to remove
Status in Unity:
Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
On Ubuntu 12.10 beta 2, freshly upgraded from 12.04, I'm now getting
my Samba shares (mounted using cifs, so with an entry in fstab)
showing up in the Launcher, with network folders icons, which was not
the case before.
I'm not sure if it's a feature or a bug, but for sure, there should be
a way to disable this, globally (i.e. option to not show network
shares in Launcher) or for each icon (i.e. with "remove from Launcher"
in the menu). For internal hard disk, which is also showing up in the
Launcher since 12.10, there is a "Remove from Launcher" option in the
menu, which is great.
