Public bug reported:

Several times over the last week I have noticed that the when I start firefox, the default icon is replaced by a grey square with a question mark in the center as shown in the attached image.
The only fix I've found is to unlock firefox from the launcher, quit the program, search for "firefox" in the dash, manually drag the icon onto the launcher, and then open it(i.e. if I start firefox directly from the dash, the grey icon appears on the launcher again).
I haven't noticed this occurring with any other program.
