Title:
  [Launcher] Remove favourite application indication

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The new favourite/pinned indication (white pinning dot) in the
  launcher icons hasn't really been well received. The problem is that
  most of the apps in the launcher are user's favourite apps. Or at
  least the bottom most apps. And the indicator becomes quite intrusive.
  If anything we should have an indication on recent apps but for now
  we're happy not to have anything.

  So having the indication of favourite app was a bad design decision
  from our side. We had it before so that there was visually no
  difference between favourite and recent applications and would like to
  revert back to that situation.

  -------------------------------
  Proposed design

  Remove white pinning dot from favourite apps.
