UPDATE: I recently noticed that the laucher icon for the folder on my
partition starts behaving normally (i.e. clicking on the icon brings up
the opened folder and not my Home folder) if I set up a search or if I
open another tab in that window. When I close the search panel or the
tab, the window reverts to the wrong behaviour and clicking on its icon
opens my Home folder.

Title:
  Mounted partitons use the same launcher icon as the home folder

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 13.10. On my launcher I have an icon for my data partition and the 
default icon for my home folder. When I click on the partition icon, a nautilus 
window opens, showing the content of that partition (let's call it 'window A').
  The problem is that 'window A' uses the home icon insted of the partition 
icon (i.e. the home icon is highlighted), so after you minimize 'window A' 
you'd have to click on the home icon to bring it up again, but of course this 
opens your home folder instead. Clicking on the partition icon does nothing, 
not even open a new partition window.
  The only way to bring 'window A' up again is using the scrollwheel, which is 
normally used to switch between different windows of the same application.
  I think that windows for partitions should use their own icons, so it would 
be easier to manage them and understand whether you have your home folder or 
your partition opened.
