I don't quite get it: The panel is definitely a /consumer/ of launchers (because you need them to do anything usefrul with it). But, with removing the last /producer/ there is no longer a convenient way to create them - You all seem to be expecting every single program will provide application launchers. Leaving it as it is, would basically render the complete Unity panel useless.
I do agree that creating custom launchers on the desktop is probably a bad idea. I also agree that it did make sense to remove that function. But I very much disagree that there is no replacement needed - There's now now no convenient method to add custom programs to the panel. How about an option on the panel itself to create a custom launcher in there? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/723861 Title: Right clicking on the desktop still displays the “Create Launcher...” option.
