  Software Centre - automatically add app icon to launcher

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  It seems quite a common case where after clicking "install" the user
  is prompted first with the user password and then with the "add to
  laucher" option dialog. I was wondering if the second dialog could be
  avoided providing a way to add it to launcher while it's
  downloading/installing (ie. check box which the user can modify but
  might not).

  ---------------------------------
  Desired solution:

  When a application is installed from the Software Centre it's icon
  should be automatically pinned to the Launcher. The option in the
  software centre to "Add [app name] to the launcher?" after installing
  a application should be removed.
