Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 13.10. On my launcher I have an icon for my data partition and the
default icon for my home folder. When I click on the partition icon, a nautilus
window opens, showing the content of that partition (let's call it 'window A').
The problem is that 'window A' uses the home icon insted of the partition icon
(i.e. the home icon is highlighted), so after you minimize 'window A' you'd
have to click on the home icon to bring it up again, but of course this opens
your home folder instead. Clicking on the partition icon does nothing, not even
open a new partition window.
The only way to bring 'window A' up again is using the scrollwheel, which is
normally used to switch between different windows of the same application.
I think that windows for partitions should use their own icons, so it would be
easier to manage them and understand whether you have your home folder or your
partition opened.
