Just to make a clarification, it does allow you to pin it to the built-
in GNOME docking area (AKA 'favourites') in the Activities Overview,
however not to any third-party docking applications such as Docky.

Title:
  gnome-control-center does not come with a .desktop file so cannot be
  pinned to dock without the manual creation of a .desktop file for it

Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  As the gnome-control-center does not come with a .desktop file, this
  means that when trying to pin it to dock (as I use Docky, however this
  would be the same with any docking program) you find that you are
  unable to unless you manually create a .desktop file for it either in
  "/usr/share/applications" or "~/.local/share/applications". So it
  would be really useful if it could come with a .desktop file so that
  these manual changes don't have to be made. I am running Ubuntu Gnome
  15.04, with Gnome Shell, and Gnome 3.16.
