What would be the benefit over simply pinning to the launcher?

    Team,

    I hope everybody is having a good week. I have an idea. My idea
    is, we could add an option on a right-click of an icon in Dash
    that will pin it to the Dash home. This could be done by adding a
    section above recent apps, maybe titled "Pinned Apps"? Opinions
    are needed... Thanks!

I am a huge fan of pinning icons to the launcher, so I have a lot of them. Sometimes, it is hard to get to them quickly though. The benefit users would get from pinning to the Dash is that users could pin a lot of icons to the Dash, and quickly find them while inside Dash.
