Title:
  the launcher should stay on screen on desktop configurations

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Released
Status in Unity:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

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.
