Title: Files (Nautilus) does not appear in Launcher or Alt-Tab Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When Nautilus is unpinned, it does not show up in the Launcher, even when it is running. It does not show up the list displayed by alt-tab either. Even when Nautilus is pinned, it does not indicate (with a tiny arrow to the left of the icon) that it is running, and clicking on the icon in the launcher doesn't switch to it. This is regression from bug #1578792.
