Title:
  Clicking an icon on the launcher, that was previously set to be "Keep
  in launcher", duplicates the icon and the program that it runs

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  If I open some applications, for example, the terminal, and then I
  right click on its icon on the launcher and choose "Keep In Launcher"
  and close the application.

  When I try to reopen that application again by clicking on its icon on
  the launcher, the application opens, but the icon on the launcher is
  duplicated, as if there are two instances on the application are
  running.

  When I close that application, the duplicated icons remain on the
  launcher.

  If I try to open it again, another icon will be added to the launcher
  making them all three icons.

  I have to right-click one of those icons and remove the "Keep In
  Launcher" option, while the program is running, and then close it, in
  order for those multiple icons to disappear.
