Title:
the launcher should stay on screen on desktop configurations

Bug description:
Using current natty the launcher is quite useful to switch between
softwares, run new ones, see messages counts etc but since it's set to
hide by default I find that over time I got tired to go to the corner
several times a minute all day long and I basically went back to using
the keyboard for most actions (which is something the unity launcher
made me switch away from when it was on screen, I started finding
easier to just click on its icons).
It seems that on desktop configurations you don't especially need the
horizontal space and users would benefit from having the launcher
itself and its informations easily available, it's especially true if
you are not a keyboard user and don't use keybindings to display it.
