To get normal behavior back, I then have to right click on this new launcher entry, choose "Lock to Launcher", right click on the old launcher, choose "Unlock from Launcher", then drag the new icon to the place in the panel where the old one was. This is silly. (Imagine if Windows 7 users had to do this every time there was patch for Outlook or IE...) Feel free to reassign to the thunderbird package if that *really* is where the fix needs to go... I'm running quantal, but this has been happening as long as I can remember, at least as far back as precise...
