This bug was fixed in the package bamf - 0.5.0+13.10.20130807-0ubuntu1

bamf (0.5.0+13.10.20130807-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low
[ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
* BamfControl: add an API to allow generation of local .desktop file
for a BamfApplication. Add a bamf_control dbus method that requests
to generate a new local .desktop file for the provided application
path. In case the application has alredy a desktop file, the request
is ignored. Otherwise we use some euristic to generate an hopefully
valid file saved in $XDG_DATA_HOME dir. Also added a new
DesktopUpdated signal to the BamfApplication DBus interface that is
emitted when the .desktop file for an application is set (for now).

Bug description:
What happens: running a Python application, such as Kabikaboo gives a
Unity launcher entry. Right clicking this entry and selecting "keep in
launcher" keeps the item in the launcher as expected. However, when
the application has been closed, clicking this launcher entry will not
restart the program. Furthermore, these launcher entries do not seem
to persist after logout/login.
-------------------------
Desired Resolution:
- Applications that are "kept in launcher" should persist between sessions
and clicking the icon should launch the application, even if they do not have a
.desktop file.
